Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: cups
For many different PDFs I have tried to print recently, I have experienced the
following:
1) Open PDF in evince -- it displays fine, etc.
2) Click File -> Print, select the printer (an HP LaserJet 2200, connected over
USB, auto-configured), click "Print"
3) Document is queued, the print icon pops up in the notification area,
everything seems to work correctly on the software side.
4) The printer light blinks a few times and then that's it -- nothing is
printed.
If I instead run 'lpr -P HP-LaserJet-2200 foo.pdf' on the same document,
it prints correctly without fuss.
If I capture the actual PDF file that evince is generating and sending
to cups -- e.g. by snagging it out of /var/spool/cups or using evince's
"Print to file" option (these produce byte-identical PDF files; I
checked), then the PDF file seems superficially fine -- it displays
correctly in evince and xpdf, etc. -- but if passed to lpr then I see
the same behavior as I see with evince, i.e., nothing prints.
Attached are two examples -- original#.pdf is the original file
(downloaded from the internet or whatever) that prints correctly;
bad#.pdf is the file that displays correctly, but that cups cannot
print.
