Thanks for the reply, I will reply here so this bug report and all messages stay in this bug ticket; it might be not related to similar errors at all.
Anyway: If you compare any output made by poppler (?) and Adobe Reader, you will see, that Adobe Reader basically recreates the PS file, when sent to a spooler, making it much larger, than in original. Actually I couldn't figure out how and which method it uses, but it basically rebuilds it. Poppler on the other hand translates it for the spooler, but doesn't seem to be able to use a language, which can be interpreted by the printer within the IBM printing network (now owned by Lexmark).

So it would be a good idea for testing the differences between the output of poppler and Adobe Reader.
