I'm new here, but if anyone could tell me if they know of any apps that serve the same general purpose as Activator does on a jailbroken iOS device? (If you don't know, it allows you to set up an almost infinite amount of gestures and macros to your liking, so you can, say, if you're...

The problem that we are having is that after we print out a photo or document on the Epson Stylus NX515 printer the photo or document comes out fine but then there's another page afterwards...
