A document my Brother HL 1110 won't print

Hello LO,


when trying to to print to my BROTHER HL-1110 it occurs now and then that I
can't print at all. The problem seems linked to the fact that I embed some
images in the document. Usually a simple document with just one picture fails
to print.

I though it was the picture resolution or picture size that prevented printing
but it doesn't seem to be that. I'd say this bug is related to the complexity
of the picture, but again, I've not much confidence in that.

LibreOffice does the printing fine (it sends the document to CUPS) and then, I
think, CUPS fails to print it. So one might think that CUPS is the cuplrit. 
CUPS seems to send the document to the printer correctly as well (no problem
reported on the regular user interface; job marked as completed).

However, if I ask LO to export my document to a PDF, then I can print the PDF
(with the very basic xpdf). So I guess there's something wrong in the way LO
prepares the document for printing.

I've been experiencing that kind of trouble for more than a year, which spans
several versions of LO. So I definitely can live with it, but it gives bad
reputation to LO in my family :-)

I've attached a document which fails to print. The first page prints well, the
second doesn't.You'll notice that the complexity of the second image is higher
: more roads, more stuff.

Running LO on a fairly recent (about 3 months old for most of the packages)
Debian testing.
CUPS version is : 1.5.3 (older than 3 month, but since installing the Brother's
driver was a bit tough, I fear to update CUPS :-))
The printer drivers are rather old (installed when I installed the printer 
about a year ago)
