PDF files fail to print (postscript error?) in 24.04, both from atril and evince. Print OK in 23.10.

I have recently rebuilt my desktop system on new hardware and moved it
from xubuntu 22.04 to xubuntu 22.10.

When I try and print PDF files from either atril or evince (I've not
tried anything else yet) they fail to print and the following appears
on the printer:-

    ERROR:
    configurationerror
    OFFENDING COMMAND:
    setpagedevice
    STACK:
    --nostringval--
    false
    792
    612
    0
    0
    792
    612
    --nostringval--
    5

The output is identical whether I use atril or evince.  It looks like
some sort of postscript error to me.

Printing the same file to the same printer from an xubuntu 23.10
system works OK and the printer works OK from the 24.04 system when
printing other files.

The printer is an OKI MC342 and I just selected the offered drivers
when I installed the xubuntu 24.04 system.

Can anyone suggest what the problem might be, and/or how to fix it?
