You don't have the real Ghostscript error message there, just the error 
code which is what it says, a fatal error.

I believe its possible to get CUPS to log the Ghostscript back channel 
to get the real error message, but I can't recall how to do that. I 
think there might be instructions somewhere. Hmm you could try this URL:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingPrintingProblems

and look for CUPS error_log where it has instructions for setting the 
logging level.

If you make the file available I can look at the problem (since you have 
given the command line). I doubt you can 'overcome it', most likely 
either the input file is damaged or its a Ghostscript bug.

I should note that you are not using the most up to date version of 
Ghostscript, and there are known security problems with the version you 
are using.
