Can you clone your print queue to a second one printing to a file by the following commands in a terminal window:

cupsctl FileDevice=yes
lpadmin -p S300-S400-Series-file -E -v file:/tmp/printout -P /etc/cups/ppd/S300-S400-Series.ppd

Print a file into this queue which fails printing on the original queue. Does the job finish without any errors? Does the file /tmp/printout get a reasonable size? If it fails do the job again capturing the print job data and also attach error_log.

Run the command

sudo chmod 777 /tmp/printout

Print the file into the original print queue without any further filtering:

lpr -P S300-S400-Series -o raw /tmp/printout

Does this work? If not, attach /tmp/printout and error_log.
