This information is about Evince 3.4.0 from Ubuntu 12.04 using poppler 0.18.4-1ubuntu2 . I attached a file (Abschlussarbeit.pdf) that Evince does not print correctly - the image is still missing. Further, I made some experiments:

0) printing Abschlussarbeit.pdf from Evince to a CUPS printer fails to print the image
1) "lpr Abschlussarbeit.pdf" prints the file correctly with image, using a remote CUPS server via IPP
2) printing Abschlussarbeit.pdf from Evince into a file Ausgabe.pdf prints correctly
3) printing Ausgabe.pdf from Evince fails to print the image (as expected)
4) printing Abschlussarbeit.pdf from Ad*be Reader to the same CUPS printer as in 0) prints the image correctly.
5) printing Abschlussarbeit.pdf using gtklp prints the file correctly
6) printing the document from Evince to a different printer (HP color laser) fails to print the image

Since lpr is the CUPS tool, I doubt it's a problem with CUPS or the printer driver. Further, both the third party tool and gtklp print the file correctly, using the same CUPS printer.
