Now printing the googlemap.pdf test file causes an "out of memory" error
on the printer after 20-30 seconds.   That's an improvement over just
silently doing nothing at all, I guess.

This is after doing:
  lpadmin -p HP3030_Postscript -o pdftops-renderer-default=pdftops   # the real 
printer queue
  restart cups

I also tried 
   pdf2ps -dLanguageLevel=2 googlemap.pdf test.ps
The resulting file begins with  %!PS-Adobe-3.0 despite the -dLanguageLevel=2 
option

I then tried
   lpr -oraw test.ps

and the the printer stalled for a looooooong time (at least 3 minutes)
with the light blinking, then printed a completely blank page.

Again, this same googlemap.pdf prints in 2-3 seconds using gutenprint or
pcl3 drivers.
