Public bug reported: Printing either "PostScript document text conforming DSC level 3.0" or :"PDF document, version 1.5" can leave the network-attached printer blinking (thinks it's receiving data), the CUPS printer hung at "Status: Processing page 1...".
I have to stop CUPS, power-cycle the printer, then start CUPS and try to print something else. This only started recently (Christmas 2011?)
