[STR New]

some more explanation.

printing from windows using cups drivers on postscript printer.

selecting on windows to print 2up

cups pstops filter does not notice that user has selected print options
on windows to print 2up,
cups counts as single page printing, but sends to printer 2up

7pages document is printed on 4 sheets od paper, cups reported  8 sheets



manually running pstops from command prompt and giving options works ok
(just pstops cannot recognize number-up option which is inside printed
postscript file when printing from windows stations using postscript
cups/windows drivers)


/usr/lib/cups/filter/pstops testjob testuser 1 number-up=1  < file.ps 
2>&1 > /dev/null | grep PAGE
PAGE: 1 1
PAGE: 2 1
PAGE: 3 1
PAGE: 4 1
usr/lib/cups/filter/pstops testjob testuser 1 number-up=2  < file.ps  2>&1
> /dev/null | grep PAGE
PAGE: 1 1
PAGE: 2 1
