I've had experience of this sort of problem arising if the paper size is set wrong. In windows there seemed to be a multitude of places to set the paper size and if they weren't all set correctly the printer wouldn't print. However, I've not seen this problem in Linux. Check that you've installed the correct driver and that the printer configuration is setup for paper size etc. The settings page you sent looks OK.
