Bug Description
Binary package hint: cups
Hallo!
After upgrading my sytem to Natty the Cups PDF printer does not work correctly any more. Everything worked fine until then. I have reinstalled cups and poopler. No difference.
1. It prints (indicating mutliple pages printed). But the invariable result is a file containing a singe empty page of size 2192 bytes, not depending on the document printed (indeed, also the print test page dialog produces this result).
2. The printer settings are not respected. The empty page has letter format. In my settings I have A4.
I am not a power user, so please tell me if I can provide more useful information.
The "print to file" dialog, however, works (but is cumbersome).
Hope this helps!
Thank you & Cheers!
Ulf Martin
P.S. Sorry for sending the system info twice. Didn't realize the web form window.

This affects me when printing to cups-pdf AND when printing to my regularly installed printer (HP Deskjet F4288). This is both with the default natty drivers, and with the latest hplip drivers from http:// hplipopensource .com/hplip- web/index. html)
In both cases, it prints a blank page and then exits.
