I'm having serious difficulty trying to print PDFs in Jessie. Printing PDFs works from gimp (gutenprint), but evince just causes blank pages. This is all with an old HPLJ5M (postscript) network printer. Similarly I can telnet into the printer and have random keystrokes print in Courier. Taking down my firewall changes nothing. Several other applications (not just evince) similarly generate blanks.
I've also installed (on the same machine) a virtual Wheezy via KVM. Attempting to print from that also results in blank pages though this should be through cups on the virtualized system to the jet-direct card in the printer (bridged networking). The cups web interface and <lpstat -tv> say everything is good. My older system (this is a new machine) printed over the same network without difficulty (wheezy and older). I'm getting some hate mail from the system: dbus[4399]: [system] Rejected send message, 2 matched rules; type="method_return", +sender=":1.1" (uid=106 pid=4500 comm="avahi-daemon: starting up ") interface="(unset)" member="(unset)" error +name="(unset)" requested_reply="0" destination=":1.35" (uid=1001 pid=3144 comm="/usr/bin/evince +testfile.pdf ") but so far my searching hasn't pulled up anything constructive relevant to dbus, avahi-daemon, evince,... Oh yes - this is with a 3.11 kernel, which I need to make the video system work (Intel haswell, video is on-chip). Any insights as to where I should look? Is this something that jessie is doing to everyone, or is my configuration strangely mangled?
