Lexmark E232 printer when printing pdf or html, first time prints ok, then on second print request, prints gobbledygook

[Stubuntu]

1. Kubuntu 16.10; KDE Frameworks Version 5.26.0; Qt Version 5.6.1; Kernel 4.8.0-27-generic; 64-bit
2. Cups printer driver for Lexmark E238
3. Expected to be able to print several PDF or Html web pages with no problems
4. Prints the first document fine. When I print the second document I get multiple pages of gobbldy-gook. Gobbledy-gook continues until I un-plug the printer and plug it in again.
I used the lpadmin commands as listed in the Ubuntu Wiki/debugging printer problems section 12,2 and 12, 3. Neither fixed the problem. Note: I have Mint, Ubuntu, and Debian installed on this computer and the command [lpadmin -p <queue> -o usb-no-reattache-default=true] fixes the problem in each of those OS's.
This is only a problem with my Lexmark E232 printer. The Brother printer works fine.

Hello Stubuntu,
Thank you for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with cups. You made this bug report some time ago and Ubuntu has been updated since then.

Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the ticket?
If it is still a problem, are you still interested in finding a solution to this bug?
If you are, could you let us know, and in the current version, run the following (only once):
apport-collect BUGNUMBER
and upload the updated logs and and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.

Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu better.

I was able to download and install the Lexmark Universal Print Driver
for Linux. This solved the problem, to my satisfaction.  I have not
verified whether the cups driver or Ubuntu fix has addressed the
situation because I am using the universal print driver on all my pc's.
I recommend Linux users printing to the Lexmark E232 and other Lexmark
Mono-color laser printers use the Lexmark Universal Print Driver found
on the Lexmark Support website.
