Q: Printing error message: "Execution of cgpdftoraster returned the error -1..."
Hello,
I recently upgrade my Yosemite OS to the latest version and I've been unable to print on either of my printers (Canon and Brother). I've deleted previous drivers, reset the printing system, and downloaded/reinstalled the latest drivers from both vendors, but I still keep getting the following error message when attempting to print:
"Stopped - Execution of cgpdftoraster returned the error -1, 1 page"
I get the same error message whether I attempt to print via wireless network or USB connection.
I can't find anything online indicating how anyone has overcome this issue. Please help!
MacBook Pro (17-inch Late 2011), OS X Yosemite (10.10.3)

Do you have any other devices that can use the printers, and if so, are they working?
Are the printer models listed as supported in Yosemite on the page linked below?
OS X: Printer and scanner software available for download - Apple Support
