I have the same issue. When I try to print the evince process jumps up
to 100% CPU usage (or rather 50% for me since I have a dual core CPU).

On two occasions, however, the printer printed an error. The first time
this was presumably from a normal attempt to print. The second time it
was when I tried to print the print preview. The printed error is as
follows:

ERROR NAME;
   limitcheck
COMMAND;
   LZWDecode
OPERAND STACK;
   --filetype--
   --nametype--
   --dicttype--

I can also confirm that of the two pages Simon submitted, the I'm able
to print the one that supposedly prints, but unable to print the one
that supposedly doesn't.

According to the printer configuration tool, my printer's make and model
is "Brother HL-5250DN BR-Script3". I connect to it using Ethernet via a
router. It'- Device URI is "socket://192.168.1.100:9100".

I'm using Evince Document Viewer 2.22.2. I have no problems printing in
other programmes. Today is the first time I've been unable to print a
PDF in Evince.

When Evince fails to print anything, the document never appears in the
printing queue.

I've tried connecting to the printer using USB. The document appears in
the printing queue briefly but does not print.

I also tried using a Canan Pixma iP4300. Again Evince used 100% for a
period of time. Then the document appeared in the print queue. It did
print, but at an unacceptably low quality (very blurred).

If I try to print other pdf documents (such as the "working PDF") Evince
does not hog CPU, and the document prints very promptly.

Note: the document that I was first having trouble with is "Tutorial 1
Questions" at
http://www.math.canterbury.ac.nz/material/MATH109/08/S2/C/?s=5 and I do
not have any problems with the second tutorial listed on that page.
