Public bug reported: Hi,
while e.g. a PDF- or SVG-file is displayed on screen correctly, the print-out contains some missing characters, a rectangle appears instead. I am using a laser printer: Samsung CLP-550. I have tried two printer drivers: (a) the one which is shipped with Xubuntu. (b) the driver mentioned at "HOWTO Install Samsung Unified Printer Driver" (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=341621 -> from source "deb http://www.bchemnet.com/suldr/ debian extra") This issue appears also in previous releases. I will attach these files: * cups debug logging: troubleshoot.txt * example PDF, the acronym's "P" at the end of the article is there: non-missing characters.pdf * a picture from the print-out where the "P" is missing: missing characters.JPG * comparable issue, last letter in line "Fahrplan & Onlinebuchung", the g, and in the last line, .ht[]l instead of .html: print-out - missing g and m.pdf * now with a svg-file, after printing with inkscape there are missing: the no. 3 and the 'u': print-out - mising 3 and u.svg ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: cups 1.5.0-16 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-12.21-generic-pae 3.2.2 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-12-generic-pae i686 NonfreeKernelModules: fglrx ApportVersion: 1.91-0ubuntu1 Architecture: i386 Date: Fri Feb 3 14:24:33 2012 InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 12.04 "Precise Pangolin" - Alpha i386 (20111129.2) Lpstat: device for CLP-550: usb://Samsung/CLP-550?serial=3221BAAL210801W.
