Recently I printed a Tex document out on a postscript printer
after dvi2ps without any problem. Then when I tried to print
it out on a Laserjet III using ghostscript heads and tails of
letters started to dissappear. Also Thin lines created by the
tabular environment of LaTex also dissappeared. I am not sure
what the problem is. Any suggestions for future reference would
be appreciated,

		Dom.

The LJIII support seems generally broken, the LJIIP support slightly
askew, and the LJ+ more or less works -- all this based on printing the
tiger.ps file on my LJIII.

Until further reports, I'd say use the LJ+ driver.

I have also had trouble printing on an HP Laserjet+ recently.  I have a
postscript file that prints on an Apple Laserwriter, but when I use
ghostscript 2.5.2 to print on a laserjet+, the image goes off of the
page to the left and bottom.  I tried modifying the hp driver to
increase the unprintable margins, but that did not appear to have any
effect.  Has anybody else seen this behavior?
