I attached an excerpt of the error_log of cups, which shows the info of the printing of a test page in "debug" mode.
** Attachment added: "CUPS error_log excerpt of test page print" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups-filters/+bug/1553245/+attachment/4588421/+files/error_log.txt ** Description changed: Hi guys, - I'm using a Canon iR-ADV 5240, which comes with a proprietary driver. - The CUPS filters chain sends a pdf file through the following filters: - bannertopdf -> pdftopdf -> pdftops -> pstoufr2cpca. + I'm using a Canon iR-ADV 5240 with a Ubuntu 15.10 machine, which comes + with a proprietary driver. The CUPS filters chain sends a pdf file + through the following filters: bannertopdf -> pdftopdf -> pdftops -> + pstoufr2cpca. The printed product that comes out of the printer, has a flaw in the typesetting at approx. 90% of each line. It's NOT persistent to the width of the PAGE, but to the width of the LINE. Meaning, if a line has only text through half of the page, the error is at approx. 90% of that line. Even a test page shows such problems: the surrounding line of the page is printed double on the right side of the page, as if there was a offset/shift of the stuff to be printed, which is superimposed with the actually correct result. I'm sorry, its a bit difficult to explain. I've attached scanned files to show the problem. So far, my assumption is that during one filtering step, the rastered/rendered product is messed up. However, the problem only occures when I use the printer which need pstoufr2cpca as the final filter step, to be converted into UFR. If I used THE SAME DRIVER (same PPD, same pstoufr2cpca etc.) on a DIFFERENT machine with a DIFFERENT Ubuntu (in this case, 14.04), there was NO printing problem. Thats why I deduce that the driver itself is not the problem. It must be an interplay between my version of the filters and the driver.
