Can you try the following:

1. Edit your /etc/cups/ppd/<queuename>.ppd replacing '*LanguageLevel: "3"' by '*LanguageLevel: "2"', then restart CUPS running the command

sudo restart cups

in a terminal window. Try to print again. Does printing work for you now?

2. Follow the instructions of step (11) in the section "PostScript (PDF) printer chokes on the PostScript (PDF) coming from Ubuntu" on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingPrintingProblems. Does printing work for you now? Do not undo this change now.

3. Undo step (1), setting the language level in the PPD file back to "3". Do not forget to restart CUPS. Does printing work for you now?
