Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-3729:
-----------------------------------------

I tried disabling the spooler on my printer but this made no difference, the 
patterns get printed.

As I said in the previous issue, PDFBox itself makes no difference how you're 
printing. 

Please create a file that reproduces the problem. If you can't share your 
files, please append your demo file (with the PDFMerger command line utility) 
to one of the PDF files in the zip files at  
http://digitalcorpora.org/corp/nps/files/govdocs1/zipfiles/

Btw you don't need itext to split files. PDFBox can do this too with the 
{{Splitter}} class and the PDFSplitter command line utility.

> Hello All:
> With respect to original thread 
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3705
> Issue: Printer prints blank pages from the PDF. Pages which contains MS word 
> tiling pattern are printed blank.
> Following are some observations:
> 1. In our environment, if spooling is enabled for the printer then all the 
> pages are printed correctly with tiling pattern.
> 2. If "Print Direct to printer" option is  selected then blank pages[Pages 
> which contains tiling pattern] are printed.
> 3. PDF actual size is 12 MB
> A. Spooling Enabled:  PDF is  spooled to printer then size displayed is 2.12 
> GB in print status dialog box .
> B.Spooling Disabled["Print Direct to printer" is enabled]: Then spool size is 
> less than 5 MB and actual print copy contains blank pages.
>  Selected Pages Print in Direct print Mode: When PDF files is separated using 
> itext API, then selected pages which contains MS word pattern prints properly 
> without any blank page.
> How the spooling affects PdfBox silent print process? 
> Is there any recommended settings from PdfBox for the printers to print large 
> documents?
