Evince prints blank pages with attached PDF

Created attachment 293355 [details] Example PDF printing blank pages TEST CASE: Open the attached file with evince. It displays in evince, but it prints blank pages only. Sending the same file directoy to the printer using "lpr" works fine.

Hi ! Same happens to me on fully up to date debian jessie. I can not print any pdfs any more from evince, thats really serious! FWIW, the file attached by the OP prints fine from iceweasel preview, but from evince i get only blank pages.

Likely a duplicate of Bug 739723
Blank pages when choosing to print multiple page on one side (also in print view). I can't share the sample pdf publicly but willingly mail it to any developer that will ask for it.
Is the correction of this bug is planned ? Think about users please.
Does this happen with Evince 3.16?
I can't know, I'm running Ubuntu 15.04 and Evince 3.14, Thanks
The thing is: if you can reproduce the bug in 3.16, then it is a new bug. If you cannot reproduce it, then it is a duplicated of Bug 739723 (which is already fixed).
