   I have a postscript file which prints fine on our postscript

   postscript file.
   The printer aborts printing the new file.

   (A little debugging has pinpointed the source of the ``error''
    on an apparent encoding of text that appears in the file as
    a large block of numbers and letters...possibly hexadecimal
    run together.  When I comment the block out, the lines of the
    figure are printed ok -- no text)

   So I am concluding that there is some negative interaction
   with dvips and my file.  Is it possible that the postscript
   file is a different `version' than what dvips assumes?

   Thanks for any comments,

If the postscript file prints fine on your printer then the file's not
well-behaved Encapsulated PostScript because it has a ``showpage'' command
at the end. (Unless you printer driver automatically adds ``showpage''...)

What's the make and model of you printer and computer, and which version
of dvips do you use?
