Please do the following on Ubuntu 13.10:

Do you have a file named

/usr/share/cups/usb/org.cups.usb-quirks

Can you attach it?

Can you follow the instructions of the section "USB printer does not
print or prints garbage" on
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingPrintingProblems?

Please also try editing the line

0x067b 0x2305 no-reattach soft-reset unidir

in

/usr/share/cups/usb/org.cups.usb-quirks

Do not change the "0x067b 0x2305" in the beginning, but try other
combinations of issue workarounds as described in the initial comments
of the file. If you are successful with a combination, please tell us.

Title:
  067b:2305 printing issue with parallel-to-usb adapter

Status in “cups” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have an old HP Deskjet 710C parallel printer. I really don't print a lot, so it ages well. I just replaced my former desktop with a new barebone without parallel port - no space to embed a PCI  IEEE 1284 adapter. So I just bought a cable which is a parallel-to-usb adapter : it is a Sweex adapter, the kernel recognizes it as :
  Prolific Technology, Inc. PL2305 Parallel Port

  I configured cups to use this new adapter, with the same old pnm2ppa
  driver. When I try to print a test page from cups (or other printings)
  it goes well, until close to the end, when the printing suddenly
  stops, without the sheet being released : I have to power off the
  printer, which as a side effect triggers the sheet ejection before
  power off. I read various articles and forums on this topic before
  posting. Playing with usblp, kernel blacklists and /dev/usb/lp0 does
  not solve anything. I wanted to be sure that it was not the Prolific
  controller which was flawed. So I connected it to a windows 7 virtual
  machine into Virtualbox; Windows installed various drivers, and
  eventually various printings ran seamlessly - without my issue on
  GNU/Linux. So my conclusion is that the controller is ok. I also just
  tested mainline kernel http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-
  ppa/mainline/v3.13-rc3-trusty/linux-
  image-3.13.0-031300rc3-generic_3.13.0-031300rc3.201312061335_amd64.deb
  . No improvement, my test page stops being printed at the same spot
  close to the end. So I can assume that there is a bug in the
  controller's driver. Best regards R. Grasso
