Public bug reported: I was creating a custom printer backend and needed a generic Postscript output driver. I used Generic Postscript Printer Foomatic, but that gave me problems when I tried to print 2 pages per side.
Actions: 1. For any printer, choose the Generic Postscript Printer Foomatic driver 2. Print to the printer, with "pages per side" option set to 2. Expected Results: 2 pages per side. Actual Results: 4 pages per side.
