Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ghostscript

There is trouble trying to print [1].
Printing the postscript works fine as well as converting it to pdf using ps2pdf 
and then print the pdf file using evince.
Though, trying to print the pdf using the lp command line tool renders the 
printed document unreadable as almost all characters are missing in the output. 
Using gv to compare the postscript and the pdf document it appears the font 
lost all it anti-aliasing effects and is hardly readable. Converting the pdf 
using convert renders the image unreadble (blurred even at 1200 dpi), importing 
and printing using gimp renders the image looking fine.
