Michael Gefen, your file Test_Page.pdf fills the complete A4 page without leaving any white borders. As most printers cannot print up to the borders it is normal that borders get cut when sending the file straight to the printer. It seems that the Adobe Reader does a scale to fit internally before sending out the file (you probably can configure this behavior in the printing dialog). Evince does not scale to fit by default and when downscaling manually it seems not to center the document but it leaves it in the lower left corner. Evince also defaults to Letter paper size even if the printer defaults to A4 AND the document is A4. Report all these issues as bugs in evince (or in the GTK printing framework).

As you can print other documents (Firefox, OpenOffice.org) correctly, the filter chain problems are fixed.
