I tried to reproduce this issue with a

- Ubuntu 16.04
- Firefox 47 (shipped with ubuntu, FF-built-in old libcairo 1.9.5)
- Kyocera FS-1020d (with 128 MB memory extension and built-in printserver).

https://www.gov.uk printed out perfectly fine

http://www.lloydsbank.com/ prints out nothing, with no error indicated and printerqueue empty

http://www.harrington-fabric-and-lace.co.uk prints out nothing, with no error indicated and printerqueue empty

After that, I tested FF with system's libcairo

- Ubuntu 16.04
- Firefox 47 (compiled with --enable-system-cairo like in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/802942/comments/20)
- Kyocera FS-1020d (with 128 MB memory extension and built-in printserver).

https://www.gov.uk printed out perfectly fine (as before)

http://www.lloydsbank.com/ printed out perfectly fine with system's libcairo

http://www.harrington-fabric-and-lace.co.uk printed out perfectly fine with system's libcairo

Again, all printing problems are solved for me with system's libcairo which comes shipped with ubuntu 16.04 (while ubuntu 14.04 version of system's libcairo also had issues).

I'm not sure if this issue is as libcairo related as https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/802942 but affected users with brother printers might give it a try.
