Try trying to find out what it is with the file command. I've found that this helps
alot when you have a file whose type is suspect.
For example:
# file escher.ps
escher.ps: PostScript document text
Next, load it up with a ps viewer, such as one of the many for linux such as
[k]ghostview and print from there.
Failing that, on any linux box with ghostscript installed, go to
/usr/share/ghostscript/Version#/examples and try to print one of the examples that
comes with the ghostscript package.
