CUPS-PDF prints a blank page

I am a new Ubuntu user. I installed cups-pdf to print a PDF file, but every time I try to print, I get one blank page, no matter how many pages I try to print.

How can I fix this problem?

Solution 1:

Its a bug in cups-pdf.
After installation, cups's pdf-printer doesn't get configured properly. To get it working you do the following:

1. Open a web-browser, and go to http://localhost:631.
2. Go to Administration > Manage Printers > (your pdf printer) > Modify Printer.
3. Provide your login credentials.
4. Click Continue for the connection and name page.
5. On the third page, when you are asked to enter the model of the printer, click Choose File, to select the PPD file.
6. Navigate and select /usr/share/ppd/cups-pdf/CUPS-PDF.ppd.
7. Click Modify Printer.

8. Go to Terminal and restart cups using the command:

   sudo service cups restart
   

   and voila! you are done.

PDFs will get printed in your /home/username/PDF directory.

Solution 2:

I got the solution.

Just get the PostScript Driver and it works fine!

Or install this "PRINTER MODEL" CUPS + GutenPrint

I don't know why PLC 6/ PXL doesn't work, but if you install PostScript it will work!
