Description Jos Dehaes 2001-05-16 15:04:01 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.4 i686)

Description of problem:
Printing more than one page on a single sheet doesnt work. There is no way
to enter this in the config tool. However, the definitions in
/var/spool/lpd/lp2up/postscript.cfg does say NUP=2, probably from RH7.0.
But printing to this printerqueue prints 1-up.

Also there is no way to choose a banner page (like in old printtool), and
also doesn't print

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. print to lp2up queue
2.
3.
	

Actual Results:  printed 1-up without banner

Expected Results:  printed 2-up with banner

Additional info:

Fixed in CVS (finally!).

Comment 4 Tim Waugh 2002-10-16 12:35:09 UTC
redhat-config-printer-0.6.12 configures NUp and banner pages for CUPS.
