[opensuse] OS 11.0 every page I print is printed twice?
All, Since upgrading to 11.0 I'm getting 2 copies of everything I print. This is page by page, not doc by doc. It is a HP Color Laser Jet 4500. i.e I just printed a 8-page pdf from acroread / kde. every page twice. Any thoughts.

Er... try printing from the command line, ie, "lpr somefile". If it prints correctly, it must be something in kprinter. Increase cups logs verbosity. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

I mean if print a 5 page doc, I get page 1 twice followed by page 2 twice, etc.

This may be (and probably is) a silly question but I have come across the situation where the printer has for some reason been set to print multiple pages. Have you checked the printer settings? - -- ============================================================================== I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone.

It's a network printer. Works fine from other PCs. Used to work fine for me in 10.3 Luckily I don't print too much.

I thought cups sat above the lpr level? Happy to bump the cups log level, but it will be Wed. before I'm back in the office.

I run 11.0 and printing to a network printer works fine. One thing you
might check is /etc/printcap. Through some upgrade glitch, it is
possible there might be a duplicate entry.
Also check in yast to see if somehow the printer is defined twice. I
have 2 network printers, one is an HP color laserjet on IP and the
other is a PSC2210 on a Windows XP box. Both print properly.

Bumped the log level in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf to debug2. Did rccupsd restart. Nor sure it had any impact. Only strange entry in /var/log/cups/error_log is: localhost - - [07/Mar/2008:10:52:09 -0500] "GET /ppd/BigHPColor.ppd HTTP/1.1" 404 0 - - BigHPColor is the name of my printer. But I've been having that consistently in the log for months (note the date) and the double printing just started a couple weeks ago when I upgraded to 11.0 Also I checked in Yast Printers and I only have one printer installed. I did uninstall / reinstall. No change.
