I am convinced I have missed something obvious here, but here I go:
If I print a large/complex job, for example:
% lpr -Pmed /opt/depot/gs6.50/share/ghostscript/6.50/examples/tiger.ps
the print fails.
lpq returns:
% lpq -lll -Pmed

However, if I create the pcl by hand with this:
% /opt/local/bin/gs -q -dSAFER -dBATCH -sOutputFile=- -sPAPERSIZE=letter
@stc600p.upp - <
/opt/depot/gs6.50/share/ghostscript/6.50/examples/tiger.ps >
/tmp/tiger.pcl
% lpr -Pmed /tmp/tiger.pcl
...then it prints just fine.
What am I missing?
