Printer Error Log

This is either a problem with evince or CUPS

I was recently printing off lots of PDF files using Evince. All of them printed off OK except one - which the printer refused to print on numerous occasions, coming back with error messages each time. All the files contain Chinese characters - both those that would print and the one file that wouldn't.

I have attached the troubleshoot.txt that the printing tool produced as well as the culprit PDF file.

This bug appears to be a duplicated of Bug 310308 or Bug 318920. Can somebody confirm that.

Downstream bug filed at http://launchpad.net/bugs/613462 Seems to be issue of cups, not evince.
Comment 4 José Aliste 2012-12-05 02:18:32 UTC 
Sorry for the late response, but if you still can reproduce this bug, can you reproduce it in printing to a pdf file?
