PDF file print fails

 * Xreader version (xviewer --version) 2.8.3
 * Distribution - (Mint 17.2, Arch, Fedora 25, etc...) Linux Mint Cinnamon 20.1

Issue

Cannot print PDF files

Steps to reproduce

Open PDF file using Xreader, print it using the print icon

On my Epson WF-3520 a "printer error" is reported and nothing prints.

On my Brother HL-2270DW it doesn't get an error, but what comes out is either a blank sheet of paper or just a small part of the first page, truncated and mis-placed on the page.

Print to File results in a good PDF file but a letter size document converts to tabloid (11x17 inch) size.

Expected behaviour

Other information

Printing the same PDF files from other software, e.g. Evince, works fine.

Converting PDF to Postscript using pdftops, opening the .ps file in Xreader, and printing it from there also works fine. (When printing to file, size is not converted to tabloid.)

Start by reproducing the failure through Xreader's print icon on a PDF, comparing direct PDF printing with printing the PostScript output produced by pdftops. Done means PDF printing works on the reported printers and preserves the source page size, including Print to File; no source file or test is named in the issue.
