Ann:

I don't know if this is going to help you, but I had the same issue with a
printer with HP, Kyocera and Canon printers printing from Windows and Linux.

The reason why I was getting that printout was because the PDF document I
wanted to print came in PCL. We contacted the canon support and they said
the new Canon printers, support UFR by default and they don't understand
the "old" PCL language and in order to make our printer recognize that, we
needed to buy a PCL kit.


I ran with the same issue with Kyocera, but they said they don't have any
solution at the moment (at least for the Kyocera 4020dn).

I tried the same document on HP printers and basically the old ones (2300
and 2420) print fine, but not the new one.

I tried to open the document using gimp and it worked. So I asked the
support (Kyocera and Canon) and both said that the printer is actually
receiving an image and not a command so the printer understands it and
prints it.

I'm not a printer expert, but when I ran on that situation, I was looking
in the same place you're looking right now (the drivers) and the issue was
actually on the printer's side.

I hope this helps you a little bit.
