I confirmed that I have cups-filter 1.0.5-1 installed but
foomatic-filters is still at 4.0.13-1.  Using the foomatic "Brother
HL-5240 Foomatic/Postscript" driver still results in a single blank
sheet from my HL-5240.  Only the 'Generic Postscript 1" driver works
satisfactorily.

I guess I need to wait until the updated foomatic-filters package comes
along.
