Correctly printed document via thinlocal

Noticed on Ubuntu 14.04 (x86_64), ThinLinc 4.5.0rc1.

Scenario: thinlocal is configured as someone's nearest printer. Printing directly to thinlocal results in a properly printed document. Printing to nearest results in the same document shifted up and right with some lines/characters missing.

This is what CUPS on the ThinLinc server said about the jobs and their filters, and a snippet from the data sent to the printer.

thinlocal:
> D [30/Oct/2015:12:46:24 +0100] [Job 20] 1 filters for job:
> D [30/Oct/2015:12:46:24 +0100] [Job 20] - (application/pdf to printer/thinlocal, cost 0)

data:
> << /Creator (cairo 1.13.1 (http://cairographics.org))
>    /Producer (cairo 1.13.1 (http://cairographics.org))
> >>

nearest:
> D [30/Oct/2015:12:46:40 +0100] [Job 21] 3 filters for job:
> D [30/Oct/2015:12:46:40 +0100] [Job 21] pdftopdf (application/pdf to application/vnd.cups-pdf, cost 66)
> D [30/Oct/2015:12:46:40 +0100] [Job 21] pdftops (application/vnd.cups-pdf to application/vnd.cups-postscript, cost 100)
> D [30/Oct/2015:12:46:40 +0100] [Job 21] - (application/vnd.cups-postscript to printer/nearest, cost 0)
