Since I can, I advise to use the ps-spool functions (same name, with  
word "print" substituted with "spool") to print to a buffer  
*PostScript* (instead to the printing sub-system) which you then can  
save to a regular PostScript file. Either a PostScript viewer (gv and  
Ghostscript) or Preview (which converts PS to PDF) might show what  
your HP printer can't print. Then it's either a Mac OS X 10.5.2 bug  
(10.5.3 update is out) or one in HP printer driver or one you created  
when you "installed" the printer in Mac OS X.

BTW, there is a specialised list for Carbon Emacs users:

        --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~
        Carbon Emacs User Group
        http://groups.google.com/group/carbon-emacs?hl=en
        -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---

And another one:

        List Archives: http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.macintosh.osx

which will also serve for the users of Emacs.app, the coming native  
GNU Emacs 23.1 implementation.

We have to expect it, otherwise we would be surprised.
