=====================

John,
Have you checked for "form feeds"? I am not using CUPS on mine, but in
the printer setup for lpr, it asks in the setup about an extra form
feed at the end of a printing job.

It could also be the printer too, not knowing when to stop from the
commands given it. I suspect though that it might just be that the
settings or from the program you are printing from is sending it an
extra page command.
