Hello Roger,

I have built it with:
apt-get build-dep cupsys-driver-gutenprint
dpkg-source -x gutenprint_5.0.1-1.dsc
cd gutenprint-5.0.1
dpkg-buildpackage


### Upgrading gave me the following (sorry I forgot to change the LANG; did it at next command):
dpkg -i cupsys-driver-gutenprint_5.0.1-1_i386.deb libgutenprint2_5.0.1-1_i386.deb

### Printing test page:
perfect result (even better as with 5.0.0 because with that version a few centimeters at the bottom of the page were always missing)

apt-get install cupsys-driver-gutenprint/unstable libgutenprint2/unstable libgutenprintui2-1/unstable

### Printing test page (with old version)
Works, but as stated above bottom margin is missing.

### Upgrading again
Works... perfect test page... and double sided printing works... now I can finally use the printer as with the Canon driver for a big commercial operating system we all know :-D


Thank you very much for the upgrade!!

Regards,
Benjamin
