** Description changed:

  This bug was already fixed in Ubuntu 13.10 but it is broken again in 14.04. 
The printer freezes right after I try to print something.
  The original report is bug #1053443.
+ 
+ [Impact]
+ Several PostScript printers do not work with the PostScript generated by 
Ghostscript but do not have problems with the PostScript from Poppler. In 14.04 
the auto-switching to Poppler for these cases is missing, making printers from 
Brother, Minolta, Konica Minolta, and old HP LaserJets misbehave. Some Konica 
Minolta even crash and need to get turned off and turned on again.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ Print on any Brother, Minolta, Konica Minolta, or old HP LaserJet with Ubuntu 
14.04. This will not work as always Ghostscript is used to generate PostScript. 
The proposed package re-activates the switching mechanism to use Poppler for 
these printers, so you will be able to print.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ None, as we had the switching mechanism already in 13.10.
