What were you trying to do?

	When trying to print large postscript jobs (1 to 1.5 Meg of
mostly text) to the printer Linus a few users have noted that Linus
behave randomly. 

What's wrong:

	 Sometimes it will print out the whole docuement, and
sometimes it will only print out a part of the document.  This effect
does not seem to be effected by the size of the print queue, since it
has occured with an empty queue. 

A specific document that one user tried a few times to print (only one
of which was successful) is the file:

	/mit/x11r4/src/mit/hardcopy/Xt/intrin.PS.Z
