[Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#370559: cupsys-bsd: Print output is shrunk when using lpr print command

Package: cupsys-bsd
Version: 1.2.1-1
Severity: important


After the upgrade to CUPS 1.2.1, any page printed using the "lpr"
command is shrunk to 92% its original size, with oversize margins. This
behavior does not occur when printing from applications that talk
directly to CUPS, and did not occur with the previous CUPS release in
Debian unstable. It is independent from the printer driver/backend used.
(Next to the custom CUPS/Gutenprint driver for my Kyocera FS-1010, I
also tried HP Laserjet and generic PCL drivers.) 

The problem can be easily reproduced by printing a PDF file either from
xpdf (which uses the lpr command) or evince (which talks to CUPS).
