Some days ago my evince stopped printing. After reinstalling it and trying different versions without success I figured out that it works from other user accounts on the same box. So which files stores evince and cups per user basis such that I can remove or modify some files for the user where evince makes problems?Edit #1Printing from all other applications works. Evince from the particular user account just feeds out empty pages.Edit #2The user accounts where it worked didn't have any ./config/evince/ and ./cups. I just deleted those directories in the account where it doesn't work, but it doesn't help. Any ideas what may be different between the users regarding evince printing?

You don't say in your question but are you able to print using other applications? The command line? I'd confirm that you're printer is still configured and working correctly by doing the following:1. confirm that printer is setup and accessible using:lpq# check for jobs on the default printer% lpqmfc-8480dn is readyno entries# check for any jobs on all printers% lpq -ano entrieslpinfo -v% sudo lpinfo -vnetwork behdirect scsinetwork socketserial serial:/dev/ttyS0?baud=115200network httpnetwork ippnetwork httpsnetwork lpdnetwork dnssd://Canon%20S820%20%40%20scully._ipp._tcp.local/cupsdirect hpnetwork smbdirect hpfaxnetwork lpd://mfc-8480dn.bubba.net/BINARY_P1% test print from command-linelpr somefile.txtTry using the Troubleshooting WizardThere is a troubleshooting wizard in system-config-printer (System ->  Administration -> Printing in GNOME classic, Gear icon at the upper  right of the screen -> Printers in Unity). You find it in the Help  menu of system-config-printer. It produces a text file with a lot of  useful information to attach to bug reports. Follow the instructions  of the wizard. If you reach the test page step, you can either click  the button to print the test page or you can print a job to the  selected printer from any application or from the command line. The  job will be shown in the integrated job viewer. Wait until it  completes or goes into Stopped state. ONLY THEN AND NOT BEFORE mark  the checkbox at the job, answer whether the job got printed correctly,  and click Forward. After that the file will get generated. Save it  and attach it to your bug report.           Further details are available in the Ubuntu Debugging Printing Problems Wiki Topic.2.

In the comments the fix mentioned fixed the issue for some but not all of the commenters.3. The directory: $HOME/.gnome2/evinceYou might try either deleting the print-settings file under $HOME/.gnome2/evince or even just deleting that directory entirely.$ rm -fr $HOME/.gnome2/evince
