Package: ghostscript
Version: 9.01~dfsg-1
Severity: normal
When I print a file with ghostscript 9, I always get a blank page
printed first. Then my document prints normally. So if I have a
one-page letter, two pieces of paper come out: a blank page and my
letter. This does not occur with ghostscript 8, but it did occur with
the ghostscript 9 that was in experimental. When I am printing multiple
copies of a file with evince, each copy includes its own blank page.
The printer I am using is an Officejet 4500. I also see this problem
with a Deskjet 5740. Both of these printers use the hplip/hpijs
functionality, although one uses the full hplip (with the hp backend)
and the other uses just the ppds (with the usb backend); these printers
are on two different machines. While this is not terrible, it is
inconvenient and quite irksome when I'm printing twenty copies of
something.
I am of course happy to do some testing if you need me to.

I don't see the problem anymore (and haven't for some time), so I'm
closing the bug. Thanks for looking into it, though.
