The troubleshoot.txt file would have been the best thing, as it would contain everything. The thing I'm still missing is the PPD, so could you please either attach the troubleshoot.txt file from running the troubleshooter, or else /etc/cups/ppd/MFC-8840D.ppd? Thanks.
Created attachment 479156 [details] MFC-8840D.ppd Attaching the /etc/cups/ppd/MFC-8840D.ppd file as I don't have gnome and the trobleshooter seems to be part of that.
Created attachment 479184 [details] test.ps (commenting out "/BRTraysw true") Please try printing this like 'lp -oraw -dMFC-8840D test.ps'.

Does it print OK?
Yes, this prints
Reported upstream. http://bugs.linux-foundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=660
Magnus, can you try to print the test page with the given print queue and PPD file but choose an explicit input tray via the default settings in system-config-printer or via the printing dialog (Tray1, Tray2, or MPTray)? Can you print now?
