pdf file

opensuse Leap 42.2
printing of textfiles stopped working since upgrade from cups 1.5 to cups
1.7.5.
traced down, poppler's pdftops causes the problem (old way gs pdf2ps succeeds).

Printer is a Lexmark e360d (old firmware AL.LB.E302'0 and also recent
AL.LB.E302'0)

attached files:
pdf (created from /usr/lib/cups/filter/texttopdf) including embedded fonts 
ps output (created by pdftops -level3)
ps output (created by pdf2ps -dLanguageLevel3 (uses gv))
ps output (created by pdftops (without -level3))
the results of sending to printer:
# pdftops -level3 foomatic-LPuwPL 
# cat foomatic-LPuwPL.ps | nc printserver1.swabian.net 9902

this one succeeds to print
pdftops (without -level3) also succeeds.

printing other pdfs and e.g. LibreOffice works.
