Bug Description
NOTE: The problem here is that Ghostscript is not able to render the files attached to comment #4 and comment #5. See comment #6.
Original report:
A few days ago, printing on a shared HP printer which is connected to a machine running Windows XP worked fine, but today it failed. I think it has to do with some recent CUPS / hplip updates. I don't know for sure, though.
=> INFORMATION: The printer in question is "mezgrPrinter", the other printers are somewhere else and I can not test them right now. <=

What I expected to happen:
The document I wanted to print is being printed on the printer connected to the Windows machine.
What happened instead:
The printing software on the Windows machine started up, just like it does when a printer job is being received, but instead of printing, the printer did nothing. On my Ubuntu notebook, I saw an error dialog.
