Hi,

since some days ago, my printer stopped printing documents with math
formulas correctly. He prints until the first formula, then stops and ejects
the paper.

The documents are all created with xelatex using TeX Gyre Pagella, Linux
Biolinum O and Asana Math.

I haven't updated anything lately except for siunitx, which isn't involved
in all of that documents.

The question: did you update printer drivers or OS?
Not conciously, which should mean, not at all, on my system.

It is almost impossible that it would stop working without updating
anything at all, neither TeX engines nor fonts nor printer drivers.
As I said, I updated siunitx via tlmgr. Could it be, that it updates other files as dependencies?

You didn't specify what operating system you are using.
Lubuntu 12.04 with texlive 2011 from tug.org.
 One very
ingenious example was Apple's update to OS X 10.6.8 when all
Type1-flavoured OpenType fonts failed to print on all Macs and the
whole system was broken. At that time printing from Cups helped.

This may sound like a printer bug, but lets look at the following minimal
example.

\documentclass{minimal}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{unicode-math}
\setmathfont{Asana Math}
\begin{document}
\[\int_1^2f(x)dx\]
\end{document}

The printed document will be empty.
Replacing Asana Math by XITS Math results in \int_1^2 being printed, the
rest not.

This only tells you that both OpenType fonts are broken. Do you get
the same problem with TeX Gyre Pagella Math
(http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/tex-gyre-math/opentype) or
Yes, the same problem. (BTW: I copied this font to either /usr/share/fonts/opentype or texlive2011/texmf-dist/fonts/opentype/public. fc-list named it TG Pagella Math but I couldn't load it via \setmathfont{TG Pagella Math}. Only copying to the directory and loading it by filename worked.)
Cambria Math (if you have access to that one)?
I don't.

Removing fontspec, unicode-math and \setmathfont alltogether results in the
whole formula being printed (in default font of course).

But then the old Type1 font is used.
Of course.

I would say that either OS is "broken" or there is some very very
subtle problem that isn't manifested on anyone else's machine. From
what I understood you had the same problem with LuaTeX and you didn't
yet report if other OpenType math fonts cause problems.
I hadn't tested it with lualatex. I did now and it has the same problems.

Thanks for your help.
