I think it's a problem when the pdf files are converted to postscript before printing. I downloaded Acrobat Reader 7 for linux and it prints fine.

Trying to convert the file to ps format (pdf2ps) gives an erroneous output file that keeps growing before I canceled it. I'm still able to open the output but it displays wrongly. Opening the file in kpdf or kghostview looks exactly the same as the pdf2ps output. In evince it looks correct but cannot print, as mentioned before.

My guess is probably open office impress sometimes create erroneous pdf files which cannot be handled properly for printing (cannot be converted to ps format correctly) by some applications.
