Hello,
I have the following problem printing with ps-print-buffer: The
printer gives me one page containing only the letters "IB", and a
second page containing the following:
PCL XL error
Subsystem: KERNEL
Error: IllegalOperatorSequence
Operator: 0x1b
Position: 2
ps-print.el version 6.6.7, emacs 22.0.50. Any idea what this is? If
the postscript file is generated using ps-spool-buffer instead,
Ghostview is able to display the file correctly, but the same problems
occur if I try printing. I have even moved the ps file to my Mac, and
Preview.app is not able to display it properly.
I take all of this to point in the direction of ps-print.el. Any idea
how this can be fixed? If an expert in postscript code wants to look
at the code, an example can be found on www.math.uib.no/stromme/psfil
(based on a buffer containing only the single letter "a").
As alternatives, I'm exploring ways to use a2ps or enscript instead,
but they don't seem to support utf-8. Other ways?
Grateful for advice. We need only very basic printing.
(lpr-buffer itself chokes on non-ascii characters; this may be due to
a complex printing environment at my institution, where there is a
Windows print server.)
