Hi all,
My browsers insists on printing 4 pages on one physical page and nowhere
I can find the option to set this back to normal: 1 page per physical
page.
All other printing (from PDF etc) print normal.
Does anyone have any idea how I can reset this behaviour to normal?
The CUPS option that does this is called 'number-up'. Perhaps the
lpoptions command will show whether you have this set somewhere.

The output from the command lpoptions is:
"
[root@athene ~]# lpoptions
job-sheets=none,none printer-info='HP Laserjet 1200'
printer-is-accepting-jobs=1 printer-is-shared=1
printer-make-and-model='HP LaserJet 1200 Foomatic/pxlmono (
recommended)' printer-state=3 printer-state-change-time=1147969389
printer-state -reasons=none printer-type=143364 scp-fc5=true
"
So, no number-up. Makes sense, because regular printing is ok (all
non-browsing applications). However, I may have found the cause.
After issuing the above command I started Konquerer, it also printed
4-up, so I had a look at the properties and this time I could see the
parameter: 4 pages per physical page (a KDE dialog).
Switching this backup to 1 page, corrected the situation for Konquerer
*and* Thunderbird.
Remarkable is that a KDE dialog influences Thunderbird running from gnome.
Guus.
