Help! I would like to incorporate PostScript pictures such as
made by fig + fig2ps in my TeX/LaTeX files. However when I send
the PS files (eg draw a picture with fig save the file and make
it PS with fig2ps - call the final file example.ps then print on
an apple laser printer) to an apple laser printer  it just
disappears! 

It shows up on the laser printer's que then
disappears after a while but no paper comes from the printer!

What's missing (ok you wags- THERE IS PAPER IN THE TRAY).

BTW troff (with a PS print driver) files make it through and print ok,
also I have the same problem with dvi2ps.

Thanks!
