Thank you very much. BTW, strange enough, that nobody else noticed
this until today, being Evince the standard PDF viewer in Gnome.

Today, while searching for a solution, I've noticed that the page
preview of Evince already showed the problem, before the actual
printing. So it is clear that it was not a driver- or printer- problem
(provided that print preview is not done using the PPD of the printer
in some strange way, sorry for my naïveness about this)
