pdf created by selecting print to file with the printer language set to pdf
Printing complex documents to a samsung CLP-620ND using libreoffice's default
printer language of pdf results in a line of garbage being printed to as many
pages as I have in the printer most of the time (some times it works no matter
how complicated the document).
Printing simple documents works most of the time.
Changing the printer language to Postscript fixes the problem (as far as I can
tell).
Setting the printer language to pdf and selecting print to file creates a pdf
that will print from evince, albeit not 100% correctly e.g it won't be
positioned properly on the page.
The documents that cause problems tend to be ones that have multiple pages per
side, duplexing, colour, or are a different size to the size paper they are
being printed on. As sometimes one page will print whilst another almost
identical page won't, it is difficult to say exactly what causes the problem.
I have attached a pdf created by selecting print to file with the printer
language set to pdf. It has two pages (slightly smaller than A5) printed on one
A4 page. If the same options are used in libreOffice but print to file is not
checked, it results in garbage being printed. If the pdf is printed from evince
it will print, but it will be misaligned (the print preview looks fine).
