Thanks for your advice. Unfortunately I couldn't find any setting about
Postscript, PCL or such in CUPS, HPLIP and the usual Gnome utilities to
manage printers.
The only spot where I see something like what you say is from
Libreoffice printer's details, File / Printer settings / Properties /
Device / Printer language type. The choice is currently "Automatic:
PDF", but I can choose also 3 level of Postscript or "Postscript: level
from driver".
So there are two stages here. One the app (libre office) converts the
document to postscript or PDF. And two cups converts the PDF or
postscript to some format your printer understands. It is possible that
either of these steps fails.
This is why I recommended trying print to file (which default to pdf)
and seeing if that pdf file prints properly if opened and printed via
chrome. That way you can tell whether it is stage one or stage two above
which has an issue. Also I think there must be a cups command line
command to print pdf and ps files that you could try, if it works in
chrome, to see if chrome does another level of processing that fixes things.
