[STR New]

I'm using the current Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper Drake), i.e.
cups version: 1.2.0-0ubuntu5.

There are problems printing from withing the xfig drawing application.
Instead of the drawn figure only an empty page is coming out of the
printer.

Find the Ubuntu bug report on

https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/cupsys/+bug/51432

Find attached a PS file produced by xfig which is interpreted without
any errors by ghostscript (simple rectangle on an A4 sized sheet)
and is printed without any problems on older Ubuntu versions 
(e.g. Ubuntu 5.04 Hoary Hedgehog).

Starting with Dapper on several Xerox printers (Phaser 5500 and 
DocuPrint N4525) with different PPD drivers (provided by Xerox) only 
empty pages are coming out of the printers.
