I am trying to print a Postscript 2.0 file created by dvips that is part of
the documentation for a program. The file displays in Preview, but
given the nature of the TeX fonts, it's a bit hard to read on the screen,
so I'd like to get hard copy.

Sending the file to print from within Preview results in zippo at the
printer. Watching the Printmanager queue shows a 94K file queued and sent
to the printer with no output. Below is the header from the file:

%!PS-Adobe-2.0
%%Creator: dvips by Radical Eye Software
%%Title: paper.dvi
%%Pages: 28 1
%%BoundingBox: 0 0 612 792
%%EndComments
%%BeginDocument: tex.pro
/TeXDict........................

The bulk of the file looks quite binary to me, though most of it is text
with some hi-res images scattered about.

If this is useful information, the file is from a SUN OS environment.

Thanks
