As Adrian mentioned above, there's not a lot we can do unless we can
replicate the bad behavior. But we're also quite happy to work with
anyone that can replicate the bad behavior to help us figure out
exactly what in cairo's PostScript output the printer doesn't like.

Sebastien, can you pass some of this information on to the original
reporter and invite them to join the conversation here, (or on the
cairo mailing list), if interested in helping us figure this out? I
couldn't seem to get launchpad to give me a contact address for the
reporter, (maybe I missed it).

Meanwhile, we have seen that there is a bug in the positioning of
glyphs when taking the original UbuntuDesktop.pdf file, and running it
through poppler and cairo to produce a PostScript file. Adrian will
debug that problem in the next day or two. And if we're lucky, a fix
for that might happen to address the problem with the printer.

-Carl
