We are having a problem that maybe someone can shed some light on....
We are running FrameMaker on our Suns, and whenever we print a FrameMaker
document with encapsulated PostScript figures (from IDL, PS-Adobe-3.0,
EPSF-3.0), and try to print those pages to either a QMS-810 or a Tektronix
Phaser color PostScript printer, we get the same error (discovered using
ehandler.ps):

ERROR: undefined
OFFENDING COMMAND: FMENDEPSF

STACK:

The same file prints correctly on a color QMS that's directly connected to
another machine, or to a HP LaserJet IV ethernet printer. It's just the
printers running through CAP that are bombing. Any ideas? I'm losing
patience running up 4 floors to get to the color printer that works ;-).

Even *more* curious - If I use a EPSF file generated by Idraw, which
conforms to *older* PS-Adobe-2.0 EPSF-1.2, it works! One difference is
the lack of a showpage in the newer EPSF file.
