All programs/commands I attempt to print certain PDFs with (lpr
, lp
, Okular, Evince, Xpdf) print solid black pages. The one exception is Gimp, which allows me to import PDFs one page at a time and properly print.
Obviously, this isn't a practical solution for multiple PDFs, so I would like to see exactly what command Gimp is using to print so I can try reproducing it from the command line.
I tried running it with the --verbose
flag and printing, but there doesn't seem to be any output showing the lp
or lpr
command Gimp is using. How can I catch this print command?
Please Note: I'm not looking for help with the blank page printing problem. There are a ton of posts on that on the internet and it just seems to be black magic how one works for some people but not others. Please refrain from answering/commenting about this.
