Example of a more thorough printer test page

Saw this output today during an otherwise routine `apt upgrade', during the
dpkg processing of the breeze package from the neon unstable repository,
currently version 4:5.19.4+p20.04+git20200812.0306-0:

dpkg-divert: warning: please specify --no-rename explicitly, the default will
change to --rename in 1.20.x
Leaving 'diversion of /usr/share/cups/data/default-testpage.pdf to
/usr/share/cups/data/default-testpage.pdf.distrib by breeze'

This is obviously related to the preinst[1] and prerm[2] scripts which intend
to replace the generic CUPS printer test page with a KDE branded one. This
brings me to the second issue regarding the package, which is that I think the
included printer test page is long overdue for a quick once-over from the
Visual Design Group for its aesthetics, and should also be reevaluated
regarding its core competency, namely testing print output. I've attached an
example of what I think would be a good target for those functional
improvements.

I also thought it might be useful to have an open bug report about it now,
before dpkg 1.20 gets imported into the Ubuntu repositories, as will likely
happen before the Groovy freeze. To be clear though, this does not currently
result in any unanticipated results when installing the package using the
version of dpkg distributed with Focal; it will likely start to do so in
October.
