Well, in most cases I print PDF files (from xpdf or directly with lpr), text files (via lpr), and sometimes spreadsheets and textual documents (from openoffice.org). As a consequence, a workaround that solves the issue for PostScript files only is of little use to me... :-( I really hope this regression may be fixed soon. Debian CUPS Maintainers, may I have some sort of response?!? Is this a problem with some filter setup? Or is this a bug in cups code? -- New location for my website!
