Package: tetex-bin
Version: 3.0-13
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/dvips
I gave this command
dvips -p 48-51,101-105 -f < mspath.dvi | lp
This produced every page from 48 on, violating the documented behavior
of this option in info and dvips --help, unless I'm misunderstanding.
I cut the printout off, but here's what showed at the terminal,
supporting the "everything after 48" theory:

Work-around: don't use multple ranges.
Possibly relevant is that the file has the first few TeX page numbers
repeat, for a table of contents. But this stops well before p. 48,
which was accurately located.

Sorry, I didn't look at my own typing close enough. I typed -p, not
-pp, so my command was in error.
