First, your printer is not only a PostScript printer but also a PDF
printer, therefore it prints foo-in.ps unfiltered, which is a PDF file.

Second, if you print unfiltered with "lp -o raw ..." answers of the
printer get somewhere buried in the error_log, if you send files to the
printer with "nc", you see the answers of the printer in your terminal
window.

According to the printer's answer it seems that the Xerox printer does
not like the "flushfile" command (in the PostScript code inserted by
foomatic-rip for page logging), whereas my HP printer and also gv or
evince (both backed by Ghostscript)  have no problems with this command.
This makes the Xerox printer abort the job on the first "flushfile"
command which is exactly when the first page is completed.

Please do the following:

Edit foo-out.ps, preceedinmg the line which contains "flushfile" with a
"%" character. This deactivates this line. Send the resulting file to
printer unfiltered. Does the file print completely now?
