I have a fix for the PDF printing issue!
http://unquietwiki.blogspot.com/2012/05/fixing-pdf-printing-problems-on-
ubuntu.html

Procedure

1. In a terminal, sudo bash or login as root.
2. Make the /usr/lib/cups/filters/pdfwash file with your favorite text editor (nano or leafpad works).
3. Using the text editor, change the lines in the /usr/share/cups/mime/cupsfilters.convs file to look like what I posted.
4. chmod a+x /usr/lib/cups/filters/pdfwash
5. /etc/init.d/cups/restart
6. Exit the terminal.
