Can you be more specific on just exactly how Octave dislikes printing 3d images?

I suspect it's a problem with the gl2ps method of printing. Currently
the way printing works is that it converts your data to a vector
format, and then converts the resulting vector image to a bitmap
format. If you have a huge amount of data, you would see Octave eat
CPU seemingly "forever" before it produced a result. I see that your
cylinder is highly detailed, so I believe this to be the problem.

So, can you report if you see an error message, or if you just see
Octave eating CPU?
