When I print this pdf in the PDF.js viewer of Firefox, then processing takes a while and I can see a print job with ~30 megabytes in size. Printing takes more than one hour with an old Kyocera FS-1020d (~10 minutes per page, so it massively slows down the printer itself, not only the processing).

When I print the same file in evince, the print job is 279 kilobytes in size and it only takes seconds to print with the FS-1020d.

Please note that I am using up-to-date ubuntu 16.04, Firefox 47.0. And my printer has a 128MB memory upgrade built-in.
