Subject: Re: PPR: missing ppr.conf?

Hi Folks,

When submitting a postscript print job, I get the following messages:

+++
WARNING: Procset "NTPSOct95" has no version and revision numbers
WARNING: Ignoring "%%Pages:" in trailer because no "%%Pages: (atend)" in header
WARNING: 241757 characters follow EOF mark
WARNING: No valid "%%Pages:" comment
+++

The printjob gets stuck at 9% and goes no further.  I have tried to change 
PPD files from the Optra 1855 to the Optra 1255 to Optra 1655 to the 
AppleLaserWritter to the HP Laserjet 4Si Postscript.  I can print output 
from Netscape browser and from text (ie ls | pprd -d...), but I can't 
print the file that is giving me the problem.  I tried to open the  
file that is giving me the problem in GhostView and Ghostview does not 
complain about the file.

Are there any parameters that I can use to force the job through or get 
more info as to why the job is stuck where it is.  Here is the output from 
the different ppr commands:
