Odd, that "printout" file is from the cairo/poppler "pdftops" filter, rather than the Ghostscript one that I deal with.
If you can repeat the tests after running: lpadmin -p HP-Color-LaserJet-2550 -o pdftops-renderer-default=gs And post your results and another "printout" file. If you want to, you can open the "printout" file in a text editor and look at the comments in the first 20 lines or so, and see whether it was created by Poppler or Ghostscript. Thanks.... I'll leave it to Till to decide whether to contact the appropriate Cairo/poppler folks.

Under Ubuntu 12.10 everything worked fine and I could print any file. The printer is connected via a USB to the Printserver and adressed via HP Jet Direct. As already said, everything worked fine under 12.10 and I didn't change any settings on the printserver. I use the ubuntu tool for installing the printer, as a normal user not su. Searching the network, for network printers offers me three possibilities for adressing the printer. HP Jet Direct, IPP and LPD/LPR. I tried all of them with the same result. I use the drivers from the Database, not surprisingly HP/Color Laserjet 2550/HP Color Laserjet 2550 Series Postscript [en] (recommended). After installing the printer the first thing that fails is the Testpage. The ubunut printer spooler tells me that the job is in progress and the printer starts to blink to tell me that he is receiving input. Unfortunatly the job never starts or gets finished. After blinking quite a while the printer stops an nothing happes. Interestingly, after canceling the job on my computer and a restart of the printer, the printserver and my computer, I can open libre office writing "Hello World" go to print and the printer starts immediately and prints the correct result. But this only works for libreoffice and only with text, as soon as there is an image in the document it doesn't work. I can't print any pdf or even from gedit. Nothing works. Always the same as with the Testpage. Printer starts to blink but nothing happens. lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS Release: 14.04 Thanks for Help.
