Well, Jonas, here's another item that ghostscript needs to attend to.
Earlier in this problem record, I noted that the second control
sequence sent to the printer was
ESC 3 0
(hex 1B 33 30), which sets the line spacing to 48/216 of an inch.
That is double what it should be for 8-pin graphics. Bu
Here is a link to my edited version of a PPD file for an IBM Proprinter II.

This works under Lenny as well as Squeeze. I have tested it both on a
real IBM Proprinter II as well as on a Panasonic KX-P1180 printer in

OK, I've done some more research; and I think I now know what's going on.
I've always had excellent luck with the apsfilter/lpr combination in
the past, especially with old printers. I still have install CDs for

I decided to take a look at the output file align.ibmpro from the
example above. The first thing in the file was ^Q (hex 11), which
