We have here a Laserjet 4050, attached to an ethernet switch. At least
under lenny I have no problem to print those PDF files you are pointing
out.
Tips (w/o special order):
1/ Try with another driver (i.e., PCL6 instead Postscript) by adding a
new printer (no need to delete the current one).
2/ Try by reducing the output resolution to 300ppp (just for testing
purposes). I've found some graphic-intesive PDF files are very-very slow
to get queued and pages get printer slowly, one by one...
3/ Try with another PDF files
4/ Try printing from another application
