I have an interesting error - I have a file which is viewable with
ghostscript, but, when I try to print it, snowcrashes an HP4.  Symptoms:
Ready light flashes, receiving data, then goes solid.  If you open the
machine, lights remain solid.  Power Cycling becomes required to
restart.

I was going to try it on an HP5, but ajax's print queue is down, and
ceres is being used by too many users.

The file is:
/afs/sipb/user/cordelia/Diplomacy/Maps/fleets.ps
A similar file,    armies.ps, prints successfully.
