Comment 1 Daniel Nicoletti 2019-03-28 12:28:07 UTC
This text comes from the PPD driver file, can you check if it has valid unicode? Does the text looks right at http://localhost:631 ?
Comment 2 t34 2019-03-29 19:51:53 UTC
http://localhost:631 also shows the umlaut incorrectly.
Comment 3 t34 2019-03-29 20:01:52 UTC
I found a file /etc/cups/ppd/Kyocera_ECOSYS_P3045dn.ppd
The Editor open this file as UTF-8 and the "ä" is shown correct. It is the only umlaut in that file. The ppd does not start with a BOM.
