First inclination is to send a form feed character first and risk wasting a sheet of paper.
However we don't know anything about your computers or Operating Systems or your printing setup or what commands you issue.
You have a limited specification printer and I'm amazed that it will print a PDF. The buffer is tiny in modern terms. Nowadays it is cheaper to buy a better printer than to fit memory to an Epson.

NAME
gimpprint-inktypes - Gimp-Print inkset types
DESCRIPTION
Gimp-Print supports many different inksets, which are printer type specific. The option names are case sensitive. Two names are listed
for each resolution; the first (short) name is the inktype, and the second (long) name is descriptive. Not all ink types are supported on
all printers.
INK TYPES
Epson and Lexmark (other than the 4076) printers
Six color printers can print using four color inks or all six colors. Six color mode is recommended for photographs. Four color mode may
be useful when printing text with embedded graphics to reduce ink consumption, or to print higher quality with Ordered, Fast, or Very Fast
dithering (see below).
The "Composite" modes use only color inks (no black) to produce all colors and black. These ink types are rarely useful, but on certain
types of paper they may produce a smoother image than that produced by mixing black ink in. The Epson Stylus Color 1500 cannot mix black
ink with colored inks; on this printer, Three Color Composite must be used.
