(Slightly OT) Weird PDF Printing Problem

[Brian Cluff]

Usually when I've seen this type of problem is was due to using a driver 
that was passing along a PDF relatively unchanged to the printer and 
then the printer was gaging on something that it didn't understand, 
either certain font properties or images.
If you have the option of using a different driver, say one from 
openprinting, gutenprint, or if you aren't already using it, the one 
from HPLIP which is usually the most preferable.
