Error in printing pdf file from Evince (HP LazerJet 4250 printer)

[Jan Frybort]

Printing attached pdf file ends with printer error at page 16. The same file can be printed correctly with Adobe Reader in Windows. It is HP LaserJet 4250 printer and it prints error:

ERROR:

System Ubuntu 12.10
Evince 3.6.0-0ubuntu2

According to http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=690511 there is something wrong in HP's PS interpreter.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

The same happens to me. Printer: HP Lasetjet P3015. Ubuntu Linux 13.04 64bit.

Similar problem happend to me. But same pdf can be printed in same printer (HP laserjet 4250) without any problem from ubuntu 11.10 but not from 12.10 or higher version.

Please help.

This bug seems to be fixed in Ubuntu 13.04 with Evince 3.6.1-1ubuntu3.

Still affects me in Ubuntu 13.10 with Evinence 3.10 and with a Brother HL-5350 DN.

As far as I can see there may be a problem in LibreOffice v 4.1 generating a PDF Page and printing with evinence.
I've other pdf's which are working great, generated with libreOffice v.4.1.3.2.

I'm sorry that I cannot attach the pdf because there are to much sensitive informations to attach it here.

This is still an error for me with some documents on 13.10 64bit using multiple HP printers. An offending file can be found here:
