This is a problem I've had for a number of years on my iMac G5 & still on my new iMac 21.5". I've got 4 printers connected: HP ColorLaserJet 2600N (network connection), Brother 5150D, HP Deskjet 5550 & Canon Pixma 14600 (Don't ask!) The problem is with the Brother B & W laser which always tries to print an extra copy of everything printed to any printer. It has CUPS & PS drivers activated, but recently it's only the CUPS driver that tries to print (that is a much fainter image than the PS on all programmes) so I've disabled that & the problem seems to have stopped. It has been very frustrating & I brought it up some time ago when I was using PGS 4.x.x. but no solution was found.

Have you tried this printer on another machine? Preferably with a different os? Lets make sure it isnt hardware.
The next thing to lok at is driver, anyone else reporting double page output using this printer and hardware/os settings? you might want to check on other forums/mailing lists. After uninstalling the CUPS driver have you reinstalled the PS driver, and tried printing?
