(Get the code!)
I have the very same problem but it is only when trying to print a "PDF.qwd" file from the default Ubuntu 2.32.0 Document Viewer (Evince). For reasons I don't understand this document which has a *.PDF file name comes up in the viewer as a *PDF.qxd in the viewer. I found that if I open the same document with the PDF viewer epdfview 0.1.7 that it prints this document just fine.
So since you can not print a PDF document directly from the Gnome Desktop I would suggest that we have an interface problem between the application submitting the print job and the CUPS print queue. I would also suggest that perhaps this has to do with some type of memory allocation since it does seem to be dependant on the viewer which initiates the print request.
I certainly wish this serious bug could be fixed as this effects anyone on my network which is trying to print this type of a PDF document. Anyway this was an easy way for me to get around the issue of not being able to print with the default document viewer in Ubuntu. No other changes were made. I really LOVE my 10.10 version of Ubuntu and I DO NOT intend to upgrade to another release any time soon!
