Re: .eps file displays with gv but will not print

Thomas,

Yes, I am using CUPS. Here are a few lines from the log file:

I [13/May/2008:11:45:45 -0700] Adding start banner page "none" to job
814.
I [13/May/2008:11:45:45 -0700] Adding end banner page "none" to job 814. I [13/May/2008:11:45:45 
-0700] Job 814 queued on "super" by "odom".
I [13/May/2008:11:45:45 -0700] Started filter
/usr/lib64/cups/filter/pstops (PID 21414) for job 814.
I [13/May/2008:11:45:45 -0700] Started backend
/usr/lib64/cups/backend/lpd (PID 21415) for job 814.
E [13/May/2008:11:45:45 -0700] [Job 814] No %%Pages: comment in header!

The job seems to be sent to the printer, as the printer screen echoes
"odom file_eps" and then after a while "Done: odom file_eps"

I have exactly the same problem on a different computer also running
SuSE 10.2 and same installations of octave and gnuplot. I am also using
CUPS on that machine.
