Something along these lines may have been the cause of this
issue. currently

$ lpoptions      outputs:

......job-priority=50 job-sheets=none jobsheets=none lpi=6 ........

and according to the cups help 'job-sheets' is the correct form. This
is not in ~/.cups/lpoptions and there is no other lpoptions file. Where
can I edit this?

bestest
Anne
