Description:
Trying to print some PDF with Evince with a CUPS driven printer results in "a completed task", but nothing happens. My printer is Canon Pixma MP270, maybe it's because of its drivers, but nonPDFs are printed fine.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
evince 2.32.0-5
cups 1.4.5-1
libcups 1.4.5-1

Steps to reproduce:
Open some PDF with Evince, print it with a real printer.
This task depends upon

lp filename.pdf works?

I will try it on weekend (that's when I will have access to it). But last weekend I tried to print another PDF (just text PDF) and it worked. PDF that couldn't be printed was a huge one with scanned sheet music. (Although it was printed successfully after I rebooted to old Ubuntu 8.04 with its old Evince.)

I guess it's another ghostscript issue you can solve by downgrading gs.

Same problem here using CUPS and a Samsung CLP-315. Okular prints fine.

Thanks for interest but it seems it's now solved - after upgrading system (to cups 1.4.5-2, libcups 1.4.5-2; evince and ghostscript hold at 2.32.0-5 and 9.00-1) it works.
