hi.
I am looking for help to fix a configuration/installation problem

So I am using archlinux x86_64 that began to use cups-filters 1.0.18-2 with cups 1.5.3-3. I am not entirely sure the problem began with that but that is pretty sure.

I am using a photosmart C3180 with hplip 3.12.4-1

Here is the bug
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/30081

The maintainer has no clue what's going on. Because it works for him(TM).

So the problem is that when you try to print a doc in LibreOffice for example or a pdf in evince, what you got printed is the raw pdf source of the document instead of the document.

I can print text file with , say, vim.

Looking at http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/openprinting/pdfasstandardprintjobformat#How_to_switch_a_system_to_use_PDF_as_standard_print_job_format , i get no improvement to try the command of the page.
