Don, your captured print job data is a PostScript file without the
images, so the "Getting the data which would go to the printer" step is
not needed any more as the images already get lost by the desktop
application. In this case it is the Java engine. To print you have to
click a button supplied by the Java  application, not the usual
"File"/"Print" of the browser, which means that the Java app generates
the output stream (the stream would also be PDF if it comes from the
browser). You should try to find a way to download or export the
document and after that print the downloaded/exported file.

For me it looks like a problem of the Java engine. Are you sure that it
did not change from 12.04 to 12.10?

Title:
  Documents Retrived as Tiff Images Print as Blank Pages

Status in “cups” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “openjdk-7” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I print deeds and other documents from court house records.  They are
  accessed by a browser through java. Both Firefox and Chrome work fine.
  Java is used to retrieve these documents for viewing. For printing,
  there is a special button to click for printing which allows page
  selection, printer selection, etc. The pages are retrieved to the
  printer as TIFF images. When printing them in 12.04 using cups
  1.5.3-0ubuntu4 evertything is fine. When trying to print them in 12.10
  with cups 1.6.1-0ubuntu10 the pages are blank. This happens whether or
  not I'm printing to a printer or using cups-pdf. When I click the
  print button in 12.04, the process says fetching page 1, printing page
  1, fetching page 2, printing page 2, etc. In 12.10 the process shows
  the same thing, but the time fetching is about 3 times longer than in
  12.04. As I said, In 12.10 the images are blank. In 12.04 the document
  prints perfectly.

  In the lsb_release -rd in the terminal, the release just shows as
  Ubuntu 12.10. Since both 12.04 and 12.10 both appear to be using the
  same java release, and since I have the same browser versions and they
  are current on both systems, the only thing different is the version
  of cups between the two systems.
