Can you possibly attach any of the documents with which the problems occurs for
you?

Thank you for your response.  I tested the document again with all three pdf
programs, Okular, qpdfview and Evince. The pdf document has a dark blue title
and text in default black.  With Evince this all prints as expected.  With
qpdfview the colors are correct - except they are lighter - the blue appears as
a midtone and the text is dark grey.  With Okular the blue appears as a green
and the text appears as a grey.  So you may well be right.  It could be the way
Qt is interacting with the printer drivers.  I have also tested all three with
another document with a green title and body text in black.  All three programs
print the title as green - with Evince rendering a dark green and black body
text, qpdfview as the same but lighter and Okular as much lighter overall.  I
also notice that when I check the Options in Okular it is set to Greyscale by
default - which I change to colour before I print.  In the other programs
Colour is set as a default.

Please also test 'qpdfview', which is a pure Qt program. If this reproduces the
issue, the bug would be in the way Qt interacts with the printer drivers.

You just did what you said you were not going to do.

Since it's clear you're smarter than me I'm waiting for your patch.

@Albert Astals Cid
I am not going to get into a pissing contest here but your logic is
questionable.  If the printer prints correctly with other programs but not with
one program, Okular, then there is a difference in the way those other programs
interact with the Gutenprint driver that I use with the Canon Pro 9000 MkII and
the way Okular does.  So the problem is with the program and not the hardware.

Do i really need to explain you that even 
1+1
0+2
4/2
2*1
4^(1/2)
all equal to 2 some program may be buggy and fail to calculate it correctly?
Now apply the same to printing

I'm not sure it could be a problem with the printer, since the document prints
correctly in other apps (Evince and Linux Draw were mentioned).

Then honestly i'd say it's your printer problem. We can leave this open but
there's sincerely not much we can do.
