How old is your LaserWriter?  Early models are notorious for not being
able to print large ps-from-dvi files.  You have to have the original
dvi and convert pieces of it at a time, printing each piece separately,
and cycling the power on the printer at odd intervals since it still locks
up now and then (blinks but does nothing).

I've not seen this problem at all since I got an NTX II.
