Cups black printing blue

[robin <robin@rektau.ukfsn.org>]

Hello,

Has anybody else come across this problem; text now prints blue instead 
of black, including the cups print test page

Kernel version: 2.4.25-k7
Device               /dev/usb/lp0
Cups:               ii  cupsys         1.1.20final+cv Common UNIX 
Printing System(tm) - server
                       ii  cupsys-bsd     1.1.20final+cv Common UNIX 
Printing System(tm) - BSD comman
                       ii  cupsys-client  1.1.20final+cv Common UNIX 
Printing System(tm) - client pro
                       ii  cupsys-driver- 4.2.6-7        Gimp-Print

                       ii  cupsys-driver- 4.2.6-7        Gimp-Print 
printer drivers for CUPS

Printer             epson c70 (individual ink tanks)
Ink levels         all over 50%

Action so far: Checked logs - no error messages
                     Shutdown printer and removed power lead for 30 secs
                     Run /etc/init.d/cupsys stop and start
                     Full reboot.

Only thing that has changed on my system is the addition of open-office 
via apt about a week ago but I cannot say the problem coincides with that.

Thanks

Robin
