Postscript error printing

Hi, been using this OS perfectly during my job for two days all the day, everything going super fast and very stable, some minutes ago installed my printer (very old but functional) it is a HP-Laserjet 1018, installed with hp-setup -i in a terminal, printed fine a word document in Libreoffice, but when i attempt to print a pdf document under  konqueror the next message appear: "Error printing: Unable to convert postcript", this error appears too if i open the doc under kghostview, but if i open the pdf under qpdfview and Okular print so fine.

I wonder why on one program print and another gives this strange error.

I attached the error window, its in spanish, sorry for my english im from spain .

And thanks in advance.

Yes, we can confirm the issue. It seems to be a glitch in Trinity printing system, we will continue to investigate it and possibly make a bug report at TDE devs.

This is very old bug. I have noticed this in 2016, but haven`t reported, sorry.
