Description of problem:

 I have a system that have print some text documents. 
 The problem is:
 
  When I submit a text to print using that options: ( lp -o landscape -o cpi=12 -o lpi=12 -o media=A4 -d ), The document is printed on landscape, fonts... OK, but shows up some spaces between some lines.
 
  To make a test, I executed this print with this command ( lp -o raw -d ), and that spaces do NOT appear. But the document is printed on portrait, with big fonts. 

 The simple lp -d print wrong with the spaces too... 

Why that lines shows up when I set landscape and with -o raw (no filters) the problem won't appear?


Additional info:

I'm trying cups 1.3.7-26.el5_6.1

I attached the document.
The problems starts after the 15 line...

Could you please attach:

1. The PPD for the printer (from the /etc/cups/ppd/ directory)
2. The /etc/cups/printers.conf file
3. The output of 'lpoptions -p your-queue-name'
4. The document you are printing (for some reason it didn't get attached when you tried the first time)

Thanks.

RHEL-5.10 (the next RHEL-5 minor release) is going to be the first production phase 2 [1] release of RHEL-5.
Since phase 2 we'll be addressing only security and critical issues.
I'm closing this ticket as WONTFIX because this problem is neither security nor critical.
