[Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#554192: [cups] Cups prints 9 pages per sheet when 1 page per sheet (default) is wanted.

Package: cups
Version: 1.4.1-5
Severity: important

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
I installed an Brother HL-2035 USB printer using system-config-printer 
and it worked fine, because I had a PPD file that had proven to work.

Now, I was surprised to see that only one ninth of the page was filled.
Further testing let me learn that
- if I print a document of several pages, actually 9 pages are printed    
  per sheet.
- if I choose to print 2 pages per sheet, 2 pages per sheet are printed.

Strange, isn't it? I printed from kwrite, text files with lpr, and also 
kpdf.
