The problem is reproducible, but it seems to NOT depend on:
- document size
- number of pages

What I can say about the documents:
- they seem to be complete (correct head and tail)
- they can be re, or maybe to resolve? Thanks in advance for each hint.
ndered completely with ghostview ('gv <file>')

If I try to print the document on the old cups, it succeeds. PPD files are the same and original ones from HP.

What maybe the next steps to find the reason for problem
