Created attachment 65549
  --> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=65549
another try at some debugging / fixing

I'm giving up on this; we push/pop the clip region in the PDF stream over the
page. The bug is still there for this specific printer when we print to PDF and
separately print the PDF from acrobat etc. so - clearly there is -something-
wrong in the PDF stream. On the other hand most printers print this, and poplar
/ acroread can render it just fine too ...

Without more technical details on what is wrong with the printer - it's hard to
make progress. To generate those I suggest that you:

* make a minimal document that fails: a tiny (1x1 pixel image), and a single
word of text.
* print this to PDF from all available software: MS word, FooOffice, BaaOffice
etc. until we find one that works.
* de-compress / analyse the command stream in the one that works, and compare
to what we have.

When we have an idea of what is causing the grief, then we can easily fix it I
think.

Sorry - I can't do better than that :-)
