You are missing the preamble.  I assume that you are working under windows?
The preamble may be already preloaded to your printer by windows.  If you are
not working under windows, you probably will find a file on the disk that
has the preamble in it.  For microsoft word, it is something like
postscrp.ini

This file would need to be concatinated to the front of your disk file
inorder to make it work.  Under windows, the  preamble should have been
sent with the file, unless it is loaded ahead of time.  In that case, there
should be an entry in win.ini that reflects that
