Package: cups-filters
Version: 1.21.6-3
Severity: normal
Dear Debian folks,
Printing a CUPS test page for the duplex printer Canon iR-ADV C2225
PCL, three pages on two sheets are printed. The template/content of
all three pages looks the same.
Talking to the CUPS developer, in the past only two pages were
supposed to be printed, but I was referred to the cups-filters
package. [1]
Looking at `filter/bannertopdf.c`, the number of copies is doubled,
but I guess it should be one in the first place, so also here, only
two pages should be printed.
```
copies = get_int_option("number-up", noptions, options, 1);
if (duplex_marked(ppd, noptions, options))
copies *= 2;
if (copies > 1)
pdf_duplicate_page(doc, 1, copies);
pdf_write(doc, stdout);
```
Can that PDF file be written to disk and looked at, so that it
does need to be actually printed?
This is also reproducible on Ubuntu 18.10. Ubuntu uses a PDF
template(?) instead of an SVG one, so it’s unrelated to that.
Kind regards,
Paul
