According to your error_log there seem to be no problems of the CUPS filters nor of the USB connection. All jobs in the error_log suggest that they got correctly printed. Any warnings/errors in the error_log are about ICC (color management) profiles not being found. These profiles are not required for printing. If they are not there, default profiles get used.

The problem is that the printer seems to not understand the data stream which it got send. This data is generated by the Gutenprint driver. As you have already tried different package versions of Gutenprint 5.2.7 it looks like that the problem is a bug in Gutenprint 5.2.7, not in the packaging done by Ubuntu or OpenPrinting.

So the best is you contact the Gutenprint developers and/or report a bug on their bug tracker. Go to
