Skipping page by UNIX printer
I have HP UNIX 10.20 and whenever anything is printed on DFX 8000, it skips a page. How could I give an lp command so that
a) the printer does not skip a page
b) Even if it skips a page, the next time it should automatically use the blank page it has ejected.
In this way, I can reduce the wastage of stationery. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

pspresent
PSPRESENT(1) General Commands Manual PSPRESENT(1)
NAME
pspresent - fullscreen PostScript presentation tool
SYNOPSIS
pspresent [options] file.ps
DESCRIPTION
pspresent is a tool that displays PostScript slides in fullscreen, for giving presentations. Navigation is simple, and the display is dou-
ble-buffered for seamless transitions between slides. The actual rendering is done in the background using Ghostscript.
OPTIONS
-h Show summary of options.
-o Do not override window manager. pspresent will attempt to disable decorations and resize itself to the size of the screen, but will
otherwise co-operate with your window manager (which may mean that it is not truly fullscreen).
-s Limit pspresent to only use the given head on a XINERAMA display.
-O Portrait|Landscape|Upside-Down|Seascape
Override orientation.
-l Loop mode; go to start of document when at end, and vice versa.
-t[delay]
Automatic slideshow mode. The delay is optional, the default value is 20 seconds.
-Tfile Automatic slideshow mode. The file contains one integer value per line, corresponding to the delay between the current slide and the
next one. You must put a value for each page of your document (count overlays, too). A value of 0 will disable the timer for the
current slide.
COMMANDS
The following keys can be used from within pspresent to navigate the slides. If Shift is depressed, then only the last page of each series
of overlays is shown (an overlay set is identified as a series of pages with the same logical page number).
spacebar
page down
right arrow
down arrow
Move to the next slide. If Shift is depressed, skips overlays.
backspace
page up
left arrow
up arrow
Move to the previous slide. If Shift is depressed, skips overlays.
home Warp to the start of the presentation.
end Warp to the end of the preesentation.
number enter Warp to slide number.
escape
q Quit the program.
The mouse buttons can also be used to navigate through a presentation.
left button
Move to the next slide.
middle button
Quit the program.
right button
Move to the previous slide.
If Shift is used together together with the navigation keys or buttons, then only the last page of each series of overlays is shown (an
overlay set is identified as a series of pages with the same logical page number).
