Actually, you're both wrong.  The original query was on how to print
an EPS file from the Macintosh on a UNIX(R) system.  You don't have
to print the EPS file.  If it's EPS, that's all you need.  Upload
the EPS file AS TEXT to the UNIX system.  This way you don't get the
resource fork which contains the PICT representation of the file,
which would just munge things up.  Then you add a showpage command
at the end and send it to the printer through lp or lpr or whatever
you have on the system.

Chris' procedure works for files captured with Command-F, but for
EPS files, you don't need to do that.  And Susannah's procedure was
right for EPS files with the one exception that you don't print to
disk, but rather upload the EPS file directly.

Hope this helps.
