Yes, that's what I've tried, to an HP laserjet 2100 and a xerox
workcenter. I use CUPS and the printer uses the recommended driver (the
HP2100 postscript driver). I've also tried with a generic ps driver -
same results. And I've tried it on another linux box (running Debian
instead of my OpenSuse). All with the same result.

It does print ok from gview on a windows pc (using both the GDI printer
specification and postscript). I attach the file (from x01) in case you
want to try for yourself.

Regards,
Steve
