Does it work for you with the test file given in the bug report? If so, we could try to nail it down further.

There are two files in the bug report and 3 different behaviours described.

I tried printing the originally reported file in my home printer (which is quite bad, I tend to avoid using it). okular printouts are missing a part of the header and from the border and the text is slightly shrinked.

Printing with evince is fine a bit too borderless for my taste, but that might be a setting I might have missed, printing with qpdfview is also fine, with some minimal borders. No text or lines were missing in the printouts.

Testing currently has 4:16.04.2-1, so if this suffices for testing I can of course do so as well.

I think that the current behaviour is caused by the "shrink to page" okular feature, that can't be easily disabled (as reported in the upstream bug:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=336617)

Actually, there are many related bugs to this one:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=347631
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=348171
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=348172

Among others:
https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?component=printing&list_id=1398832&product=okular&resolution=---

It seems that upstream has also been inactive regarding this bugs. :(

It might be worthwhile to send a nudge message to this bugs reports, with a bit of luck you might get a patch that we can backport to jessie.

From my tests I would recommend to use qpdfview to print these files. And maybe reporting the missing features that are present in okular as feature requests to qpdfview upstream.

Happy hacking,
