I'm so tired of CUPS and its moods !
I have this well known issue with CUPS just not wanting to print particular files be it PDFs from Okular or Libre Office. Today I tried printing two invoices, both A4 PDFs, both opened up in Okular and guess what, I could print one of them but not the other, tried deleting the jobs and again and again but to no avail, and just for fun, I can print the first one again :( just fine.
I went into the web interface and looked at some error logs:
I have

Also tried restarting cups.service, to no avail

I have a Samsung ML-1610 laser printer with CUPS 1.5.4 and SPliX 2.0.0
