opens correctly using Okular, but will only print as a blank page (whether from Okular or just using 'lpr'). Any thoughts on why this is happening? No errors appear in the journal so I'm assuming it's not because of missing fonts.

Prints fine for me with both okular and evince. This is the case even though the print-preview in okular displays a blank page.

Interestingly, Evince works (I hadn't tried it before). I assumed they would both use the same back-end 'lpr' conversion process.
I guess I'll report a bug against Okular.

I have the experience that Okular is better for display and evince is better for printing. I often had problems printing with Okular in the past (printer throwing errors or not printing properly), much less with evince. The last time I did a comparison of printing to a PS file between both programs (a few years back), the result from evince was smaller by a huge factor. I don't print very often nowadays, but if I do, I always use evince.

Good to know, thanks.
