I have ongoing issues with my Xerox Phaser 2550 printer under Centos 7. It always worked without any issues on Centos 6 before I upgraded to Centos 7.
The problem manifests itself by regularly (but not every time) printing page after page of garbage instead of the document that I wanted to print out. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. The same document might print fine now but then I get pages of garbage the next time I print.
I have it set up as a shared printer on my network; the other computers on my network are all Centos 6.
<SNIP> That, to me, sounds like a driver issue - pages and pages of garbage reminds me of postscript not going through a ps driver.
One other possibility, though very unlikely in your case, is someone probing your network. We just realized that the crap showing up every day or so on the printer near me was actually our PEN tester team hitting the printer (the http help was curious; the line with (nessus) told me the story).
