Interesting.  I've just tested that a PS file hacked in this way still
looks OK in GV and when printed via "regular" lpr.  The patch to change
this PostScript output from PAW is pretty trivial, it's a two-line diff
in src/graflib/higz/ipost/ipdef.F.  I'll first wait to see what Ian has
to say though.

By the way, what is your printer model?  Is there any way you could test
the original (bad) PS file using CUPS with a different kind of printer?
 It's conceivable that the printer is ignoring Begin(Page)Setup ...
End(Page)Setup sections rather than CUPS ignoring them.
