To fix this, start xpp, choose your printer and click on "Options". On
the "Text" tab adjust wider borders and then save your setting. The text
problem should be solved now. Do this as "root" to make the settings
system-wide.

Can you try "gv -" or "gv" (one of the two will work) as printing
command and tell me whether "gv" displays the PostScript output
correctly. You can also print into a file and check the file with
gv <file> &
in a terminal window. This way you can check whether the GNOME programs
(using the GNOME print library for generating PostScript) produce
correct PostScript. If you get correct PostScript files in "gv", try the
printing facility of "gv". Tell me your results.
