** Summary changed:

- PS files generated by poplar&ghostscript do not print
+ PS files generated by poppler&ghostscript do not print

** Description changed:

  Recently I have run into issues printing to my Minolta-QMS PagePro 1250E
- black&white laser printer, supposed to support PostScrip Level 2
+ black&white laser printer, supposed to support PostScript Level 2
  (emulation).
  
  The printer has started to print ASCII text, apparently PS source code
  in a staircase pattern on several sheets (before I abort). This is the
  case for all kinds of output/sources.
  
  I use the attached PPD for the printer, which is working fine on Mac OS
  X and on Windows and had been working OK a few months ago on linux.
  After running into issues I have also used the PPD in the default
  repository, which does also not work.
  
  I have tried ghostscript as filter as well as poppler. I have attached
  PS output generated with cupsfilter for poppler 0.24.1, ghostscript 9.09
- and Mac OS X (cups 1.63 on linux, cups 1.6.2 on Mac OS X). When sending
- the files to the printer with netcat the Mac OS X one prints just fine,
- whereas the files generated with pdftops pdf2ps do not print the output
- mentioned before. I cannot pinpoint after what changes in
- cups/poppler/ghostscript linux printing started to fail, but it appears
- to have been caused by some changes in the past two months.
