I have a problem with NeXT's handling of PostScript printing.
I have some PS code that expects to executed in the printer and thus
producing output, e.g. it has a big loop inside of which it produces
some picture and then at the end of each pass through the loop it
generates a showpage command.

Now this is legal PS, it displays correctly in Preview (after a
warning), but there is no way in H*^%^* to get that printed.

Does anyone know how to solve that problem?

Ronald
