First, you have italian descriptions because you have used the italian (it) version of the PPD file. There are also german (de), french (fr), and english (en) versions. In the printer setup tool you should see 4 entries for your printer with Splix, marked (de), (en), (fr), and (it). Choose the one for the language which you prefer.
