Comment 24 for bug 376193

I have observed the same problem on an up-to-date Jaunty machine: printing normal onesided, normal duplex or draft one-sided works fine, but the combination of draft grayscale and duplex consistently crashes. The relevant part of /var/log/cups/error_log is:

And there is also a similar segfault error in dmesg (I neglected to copy it sorry, but I am pretty sure it is the same as that reported above).
