Same here. However, I have gotten this error before [1], and I was just able to make it happen again, simply by installing certain fonts on the system (apt-get install fonts-pagul). Henrik, do you still get the same Ghostscript error if you execute the following before plotting and printing? octave:1> set (0, "defaultaxesfontname", "Helvetica") If that fixes it, then see #662892, you may be seeing the same or a related bug.
