I have a single page PDF file that cannot be printed with Evince. The printer light flashes 1-2 minutes and then return to the ready state without printing anything. I see that the pdftops uses 100% cpu and continues to do so even if I cancel my job (I have to do a sudo kill). The same PDF file prints correctly in Acrobat Reader (but takes some time to print).
Also, I if I use the pdftops command in a terminal, I get very quickly a correct PS file. This file prints as it should in Evince. This is why I suspect Cairo but I'm not sure. Other (more complex) pdf files print correctly, so it's a bit strange.
The document contains some graphics elements (green circles) that aren't rendered 100% correctly when the PDF is opened in Evince. However if I ask for a print preview in Evince, the rendering is correct.
