Printer problem

We have a problem when printing out files
from TeX or LaTeX. Well, really the problem is
when printing after having printed using Tex or
LaTeX.

The printer in question is a HPiii printer with
a PostScript cartridge, and we are using Sun 4's.
We use the command dvips to print.

The problem (personally I'm not convinced that
it happens every time, or that it is really TeX that
is causing it), the file immediately afterwards (which
may well be another TeX file), is printed upside down, 
back to front, and very small. THe next one may be OK
or even smaller. The problem seems to clear itself, 
and I haven't discovered what causes it. 

Any ideas?

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
