We all would, Francesco. Thanks for your clear, detailed report. As far as can tell, this affects queues set up with printer-driver-ijs and printer-driver-hpcups, and all the raster printer models I tested are affected. For testing I used cupsfilter -p <PPD_in_/etc/cups/ppd> -m printer/foo -e /etc/nsswitch.conf > out.dat Would you and Nicolas download buster's base-files package from http://snapshot.debian.org/package/base-files/10.3%2Bdeb10u1/#base-files_10.3:2b:deb10u1 and install it with 'dpkg -i ...'? How's that for printing? Regards, Brian.
