The setting ps_accounting (currently set to 1) causes foomatic to insert some
additional PostScript code to CUPS print jobs related to accounting.

There have been reports that this setting causes empty pages being ejected by
printers at beginning of print jobs:

I suggest that in the default filter.conf file shipped with foomatic the
following line be added:

ps_accounting: 0

In my case it solved the problem of empty pages in OpenOffice and Mozilla on
Mandrake 9.1.
