Package: foomatic-filters
Version: 4.0-20090509-1
Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***
I have found the reason why the old workaround stopped to work.
The problematic line in the error_log is:
D [19/Nov/2009:21:39:42 +0100] [Job 1162] Starting renderer with command: gs 
-dFirstPage=1  -q -dBATCH -dPARANOIDSAFER -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=hl1250 
-dEconoMode=2 -dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=595 -dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=842 -r600x600 
-dSourceTray=2 -sOutputFile=- -c '/Default << /SpotFunction { 180 mul cos exch 
180 mul cos add 2 div } bind /HalftoneType 1 /AccurateScreens true /Frequency

sethalftone << /HalftoneMode 1 /UseWTS false /Accura -f   
/var/spool/cups/tmp/foomatic-ynzpH8 

I've tried to run this command by hand:
$ gs -dFirstPage=1  -q -dBATCH -dPARANOIDSAFER -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=hl1250 
-dEconoMode=2 -dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=595 -dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=842 -r600x600 
-dSourceTray=2 -sOutputFile=- -c '/Default << /SpotFunction { 180 mul cos exch 
180 mul cos add 2 div } bind /HalftoneType 1 /AccurateScreens true /Frequency 
137 /Angle 37 /HalftoneName (Round Dot Screen) >> /Halftone defineresource 
sethalftone << /HalftoneMode 1 /UseWTS false /Accura -f   
/var/spool/cups/tmp/foomatic-ynzpH8 > tt.bin
> 
Which as you can see hangs waiting for matching "'".
The correct command should be:
$gs -dFirstPage=1  -q -dBATCH -dPARANOIDSAFER -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=hl1250 
-dEconoMode=2 -dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=595 -dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=842 -r600x600 
-dSourceTray=2 -sOutputFile=- -c '/Default << /SpotFunction { 180 mul cos exch 
180 mul cos add 2 div } bind /HalftoneType 1 /AccurateScreens true /Frequency 
137 /Angle 37 /HalftoneName (Round Dot Screen) >> /Halftone defineresource 
sethalftone << /HalftoneMode 1 /UseWTS false /Accura ' -f   
/var/spool/cups/tmp/foomatic-ynzpH8 > tt.bin

Which generates the proper binary for my printer.
So the problem must be somewhere where the above command line for gs execution 
is generated
