Attached is an .eps file that will help in exhibiting the problem. The
.tex file is given below.  It is first referenced with a relative
location (the current directory), then it is referenced with an absolute
address (but to the same directory).  Both graphics images appear in the
.dvi file that gets generated, but only the first one successfully
prints.

This seems like a serious problem, as one would not want to copy
graphics files into a current directory just to resolve a printing
issue.

Thanks for your help.

===================
\documentclass[letterpaper, 11pt]{article}

\usepackage{graphicx}

\parindent=0in
\parskip 10pt

\begin{document}

Here is an example of the graphics problem.

First, we include a file in the current directory (/home/howell/temp),
but do not provide a full path listing to it.

\includegraphics[width=2in]{vector_field.eps}

Next, we reference the same file in the same location with an absolute
address.

\includegraphics[width=2in]{/home/howell/temp/vector_field.eps}

Both files show up in a .dvi output, but only the first one appears on printed 
output. In addition, files that are in a
subdirectory of the current location seem to print out successfully provided a 
relative path is given.
