PAPPL only allows a fixed (hard-coded) maximum number of vendor-specific
options (PAPPL_MAX_VENDOR = 32) in addition to the standard IPP options
for a printer. The number of options in the expert PPD files is too
large for this limit.
What I could do is that in the Snap I could build PAPPL with a higher
limit (Snaps bring their own libraries).
