My printer is a HP M1522NF

I'm seeing a similar bug to this too, except only one or two fonts are replaced
with a square/rectangle char.

Changing postscript level within the ppd file only works around the problem.

I first noticed this with using Abiword.  Open abiword and enter the available
chars of the alphabet with numbers (ie. ABC..., abc..., 123...)  and print
using cups.  Even printing to file and transfering the .ps file to and printing
from Windows shows this problem.

Another method to find the problem, is create or view a webpage using utf-8 and
print a list of chars (similar to above).  I happened across this method by
finding and randomly printing a website within Seamonkey.

www-client/seamonkey-2.3.1-2.3.3 (I haven't tested the specific site since
2.3.1 or 2.3.2??)
app-text/poppler-0.16.7
app-office/abiword-2.8.6-r1
app-text/ghostscript-gpl-8.7.1-r6

I've got threads concerning this on the abiword & cairo mailing lists.
