There are various different PostScript printers in existence, some of which
have hard disks (to store fonts and other things on). The file operators in
PostScript enable you to access the hard disks attached to the PRINTER.

The HP Laserjet (any model) is not one of those printers.  Therefore, I'm
not surprised that trying the hard disk operators gives you an error.

What exactly were you trying to achieve?

John Lister.
