#15 CUPS problem with odd-page-count jobs

[Joe]

I believe something is wrong in CUPS/lp which is causing lp to print blank pages at inapropriate times for jobs with an odd page count.

This has broken all batch printing and I am seeking support on the issue. Even dplx/duplex is printing 2 even pages and then 1 odd page on a two page job that only requires one sheet - although it still works.

As a workaround, kmprb can still be used with a batch size of 1 which will force each job to be its own batch.

mpr can also be used from a terminal because it makes each job its own batch anyway.

As mentiioned above, dplx/duplex still works. It just prints an extra blank page which can be reused.
