no: when I send a multipage ps-file to /dev/lp0 with cat, it prints all pages without problems, (I did so only to verify that nothing is wrong with the PostScript file) but when I send it with lpr it prints only the first page. Normally one would like to be able to send files to the printer with lpr, especially if they are not PostScript...
which ppd file have you used when configuring cups?
Aha, that's it, thanks! I took the recommended one: Laserjet_5MP-PostScript.
I now tried the other three and they printed all pages.
The second one, Laserjet_5MP-gimp-print-ijs, printed about 3 mm too much to the right.
So then why not adjust the margin settings? Start kprinter, select the printer, go to properties and make the adjustment.
So I would advise either Laserjet_5MP-gimp-print or Laserjet_5MP-hpijs
