Printing complex PDFs from evince, or sometimes even printing comples webpages from firefox result in one error page being printed instead of the document content: +-------------------------+ | ERROR NAME; | | undefined | | COMMAND; | | Q | | OPERAND STACK; | +-------------------------+ My printer is a Brother HL 5270DN. It doesn't matter whether the printer is connected via USB or as network printer. In both cases the described bug does happen. The PPD I use is "Brother HL-5270DN BR- Script3", similar to the one at http://www.openprinting.org/download/PPD/Brother/BR5270_2_GPL.ppd I discovered this bug in up-to-date Debian unstable for several years already. Now I switched one of my laptops to Ubuntu Natty (fresh installation), and unfortunately discovered the same bug there as well. I'm pretty sure that this bug is related to bug #419143, and not really in CUPS, but rather in some library (poppler or cairo) used by GTK applications. The same PDFs that produce the described error in evince, print fine in okular. I attach an example PDF that doesn't print in evince, but prints fine in okular. It's sufficient to (try to) print page 1 of the document.
