grrrr... used the update to get the ghostscript update. took forever to
d/l on my connection, then it complained it was unsigned and wouldn't
install... bummer.

I can get basic b/w text printout using enscript -M A4, but that's about
it. some ps will print (like the test page - with colour even) while other
ps won't... weird.

There seem to be a lot of app that allow you to change settings, margins
etc - like qtcups and xpp etc - but they all seem to have nil effect. 

Maybe I have to buy an epson printer :-)
