Ftp over to "wilma.cs.brown.edu" and pick up the postscript faq. It lists
some sources and programs that can help. The one I have in mind
is called "behandler.ps".  It's postscript code that you can download to
your printer. When an error occurs, it prints out something a little more
understandable. To load behandler.ps, just download (print) it to your
printer.

Another thing to try would be to pick up ghostscipt/ghostview and see if
they can display it. It might be that there is an error in the file. Or try it
on another printer.

Tell it Printer-specific (unless of course you want pages and pages of
postscript code ;-).
