Bug description:
  Binary package hint: cups

  When trying to print on an HP Laserjet 4100 (through network, no
  possibility to connect to USB) in karmic, A notification tells me that
  printing succeeded, but regarding of the document to be printed, only
  one page gets printed with the following error message (6 lines):

  
  ERROR: undefined
  OFFENDING COMMAND: 0a

  STACK:

  -mark-

  
  Other printers on the same network (e.g. OKI C7350) work flawlessly, also the same printer worked on intrepid and jaunty.

  WORKAROUND 1:
  Print from okular (KDE PDF viewer) or any other (non-gtk?) software.

  WORKAROUND 2:
  Use the fixed cairo packages from this PPA:
