hi,
I have been trying to print ps.map output on an HP laserjet IIIp with postscript
cartridge , but with no success.
After some time spent in processing something (the .ps file, I presume...) the printer
just goes back to 'ready', without printing anything.Has anybody else experienced a similar behaviour?

We use a HP Laserjet 4m and it seems to work fine with ps.map.
We have had problems with some printers not switching modes between
PCL and postscript. You must either have an autoswitching printer (which
I doubt the IIIp is), have software that does the switching for you
(such as Sun's NewsPrint software), or set the printer to postscript
mode and only send postscript files to the printer.
Can you send other non ps.map postscript files to the printer with
success?
