Mmmm, how about using a different printer driver?
Different drivers give different results as they interpret PostScript
files in their "own" way. That say, you could try with (in order of
preference): Postscript-Kyocera, Generic PS, PCL6. You can add as many
printer instances as drivers you want to test :-)

What's now the status of the printer? Maybe you have to "enable" it
again, AFAIK, the default printer policy is to put the printer in "stop"
mode after any error.

Can't see it :-?

Yes, just copy/paste from one computer to the other but this will solve
the problem only if the error resides inside the PPD file and not in the
cups package itself.
P.S. Worth noting that there are some issues with cups in wheezy for a
set of PS printers.
