WHat kind of problem could it be? Printer can handle definitly bigger jobs than this one. I tried to print it out on 3 different printers: HPlaserjet2200 HPlaserjet4000TN HPcolor laserjet 2500 with exactly the same result. Postscript file is derived from the TeX file and there is a lot of drawed figures . We have no origin source. Is there any way to get it print out? here you are exact what I get : =========== chopin:298 /var/spool/lpd/d3# lpq -llll -Pd3 Printer: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 'datalogi3' Queue: 1 printable job Server: pid 17688 active Unspooler: pid 17703 active Status: attempt 2, sleeping 10 before retry at 09:52:51.465 Status: waiting for subserver to exit at 09:52:51.468 Status: subserver pid 17692 starting at 09:53:01.471 Status: accounting at start at 09:53:01.471 Status: opening device 'd3%9100' at 09:53:01.472 Status: printing job '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' at 09:53:01.476 Status: processing 'dfA527ariadne.imada.sdu.dk', size 214894, format 'f', IF filter 'ifhp' at 09:53:01.477 Status: IF filter 'ifhp' filter msg - 'ifhp 09:53:05.981 [17697] Pr_status: Error: limitcheck; OffendingCommand: gsave ' at 09:53:05.984 Status: IF filter 'ifhp' filter exit status 'JFAIL' at 09:53:05.984 Status: printing finished at 09:53:05.984 Status: LP filter msg - '%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%^M' at 09:53:05.986 Status: accounting at end at 09:53:05.990 Status: finished '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', status 'JFAIL' at 09:53:05.991 Status: job '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' attempt 2, trying 3 times at 09:53:05.998 Status: attempt 3, sleeping 20 before retry at 09:53:06.023 Status: waiting for subserver to exit at 09:53:06.025 Filter_status: sync done at 09:53:02.632 Filter_status: pagecounter 75431 after 0 attempts at 09:53:02.632 Filter_status: pagecounter 75431 at 09:53:02.632 Filter_status: sending job file at 09:53:02.634 Filter_status: starting transfer at 09:53:02.634 Filter_status: initial job type 'POSTSCRIPT' at 09:53:02.635 Filter_status: decoded job type 'POSTSCRIPT' at 09:53:02.635 Filter_status: job type 'POSTSCRIPT' at 09:53:02.635 Filter_status: transferring 214894 bytes at 09:53:02.636 Filter_status: 28 percent done at 09:53:02.664 Filter_status: 57 percent done at 09:53:02.872 Filter_status: 85 percent done at 09:53:03.279 Filter_status: sent job file at 09:53:03.280 Filter_status: getting end using 'pjl job/eoj' at 09:53:03.281 Filter_status: error = 'limitcheck' at 09:53:05.981 Filter_status: Error: limitcheck; OffendingCommand: gsave at 09:53:05.981 Rank Owner/ID Class Job Files Size Time active(attempt-3) [EMAIL PROTECTED] A 527 /tmp/gv_3f39ee4e_1_ 214894 09:52:46 error [EMAIL PROTECTED] A 938 ERROR: too many errors best Longina -- Longina Przybyszewska, system programmer Dept. of Math. & Comp.
