hi there, I'm running Lucid Lynx 10.04 and have exactly the same problem printing large PDF's with evince. It says the job is too big even though the PDF file is only 4MB and my printer has 32MB of RAM. the problem seems to be that evince is trying to reprocess the file and it makes it very large, in my case, too large for the printer's RAM to handle.
The fix suggested by Till: Till Kamppeter wrote on 2009-08-10: #41 Can you all please try cupsctl RIPCache=256m Does this fix your problems of printing large files? did the trick for me for smaller files but for a 4.5 MB one that I have it ballooned up to 36217k which is too large for my printer. It also doesn't work for printing documents like .doc from Google's online document viewer. Can the command be modified to make this work? I'm surprised at such a glaring bug in Ubuntu for so many years. I moved to it from Windows Vista and I've been very happy otherwise but this is a glaring issue.
