------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-09-08 00:12 ------- I cannot reproduce the bug on the current Cooker, even if I use exactly the same PPD files. I have also exactly the same printers (HP LaserJet 1100 and 4050). I have tested a 2-page document from Mozilla and a 7-page document from OpenOffice.org. I have ps_accounting turned on and I get no blank pages. I get absolutely correct printouts and correctly counted pages in /var/log/cups/page_log. Your file /usr/lib/cups/filter/cupsomatic should be a symbolic link to foomatic-rip: [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# ls -l /usr/lib/cups/filter/cupsomatic lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 Ago 6 16:42 /usr/lib/cups/filter/cupsomatic -> ../../../../usr/bin/foomatic-rip* [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# If yours is a file by itself, you can have a very old cupsomatic version which is from the time before I fixed this bug which was reported years ago. So please delete this ancient file and set the link: ln -s /usr/bin/foomatic-rip /usr/lib/cups/filter/cupsomatic to get your problem solved. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: 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: <http://xprint.mozdev.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=4181> <http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&safe=off&threadm=atn8ud%243o92%40ripley.netscape.com&rnum=6&prev=/&frame=on> 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.
