This could be a problem with the filters used with the job.

We assume you are using a PPD from the printer-driver-splix package.
The PPD will be in /etc/cups/ppd. It is your.ppd.

The PDF you refer to is test.pdf. In a terminal please do

   /usr/sbin/cupsfilter -m application/vnd.cups-pdf -p /etc/cups/ppd/your.ppd 
test.pdf > out.pdf

You can repeat this for any other PDF, of course. It is quick and
doesn't waste paper or ink. :) You also do not need to be root.

1. compare test.pdf with out.pdf for a number of test PDFs. May I recommend
   mupdf as a lightweight PDF viewer.

2. Post the output from cupsfilter for one input PDF.

3. Comment on what you observe in 1.

Regards,

Brian.
