Well, have you tried increasing the speed from 9600 to 19200? I don't
know where I got the following PS code, but it changes the PS
printer (at least the Apple LaserWriter Plus) from 9600 baud to 19200.
Remember you will have to change the /etc/printcap entry to reflect
this speed change.
%!
0000 % Server Password
statusdict begin 25 sccbatch 0 ne exch 19200 ne or
{serverdict begin exitserver} {pop end stop} ifelse
statusdict begin
25 19200 0 setsccbatch
end % note -- next line has an actual CTRL-D
