Have you checked for driver up dates for the printer??
Could be the issue...
According to most of the sites I found in Google, the last update to the Linux printer driver was on August 12, 2004. I am using the latest RedHat drivers for RHEL 5.0 (repackaged as CentOS 5.0), which I am guessing contain the latest and greatest driver code available.
I am using the CUPS foomatic pclmono driver (the recommended driver) for this printer, and with the exception of graphics files (PDFs, PS from PDFs and anything from GIMP), everything prints just fine.
Since this does not appear to be a CentOS issue, I have also posted this in the gnome email list, although I'm not entirely sure that's the right place to ask, either.
Thanks - more suggestions welcome should any arise.
By the looks of it it appears to be a problem with printing postscript.
Is the ghostscript package and it's fonts properly installed?
If you enscript a text file and print it does it come out ok?
