Hi Kevin,

I did about the research I could on the different printer models.

Result: 

The original file does not print (correctly) on the following models:
TekPhaser 740, Laserjets 2300, 2200, 2420, 4M, Lexmark Optra R+, Deskjet 600.

The only printer it printed on correctly was
Laserjet 3700 

The fix prints on all of the printers.

For cups, the last one uses a specific driver for HP Color Laserjet
3700, whereas all the others use the 'Foomatic/Postscript' driver.

( side remark - using paw 2.14/03 (not yours) under cygwin, which
connects to our printerserver, debian+cups, I could reproduce exactly
the same behaviour, problem plus fix ).

That about sums my little research.

Cheers

Frank
