If you want to get rid of the bug without updating your server to a newer
Mandrake release, follow the instructions on

http://www.linuxprinting.org/cups-doc.html

to manually set up your print queues with foomatic-rip. foomatic-rip you will
download from linuxprinting.org when following these instructions.

And in the next time please tell earlier which version of Mandrake Linux you are
using.

The setting ps_accounting (currently set to 1) causes foomatic to insert some
additional PostScript code to CUPS print jobs related to accounting.

There have been reports that this setting causes empty pages being ejected by
printers at beginning of print jobs:

I suggest that in the default filter.conf file shipped with foomatic the
following line be added:

ps_accounting: 0

In my case it solved the problem of empty pages in OpenOffice and Mozilla on
Mandrake 9.1.
