Hello,

i ran into this problem today, when I upgraded our print server from etch to 
lenny. We use it to print from windows clients.

After the upgrade we couldn't use duplex printing or selecting a specified 
printer tray, the printer took paper only from the
default tray, no matter what was selected.

After some reading the pstops filter was identified as the part that gave us 
this trouble. I copied /usr/lib/cups/pstops from
an Etch installation to /usr/lib/cups/pstopsold at our printserver. Further I 
modified /etc/cups/mime.convs:

#application/postscript  application/vnd.cups-postscript 66      pstops
application/postscript  application/vnd.cups-postscript 66      pstopsold

After that, everything worked as expected.

Now, it seems that is a bug in the pstops filter. Is upstream informed? Or is 
this a Debian specific bug?
