I too had this problem.  I assume you have a standard Postscript 
printer, not an Apple Laserwriter, and are trying to print the fixed-up 
version of the paper from expo.lcs.mit.edu.  Simply replace 8 instances
of "DeltaSymbol" with "Symbol" in lines 14108 to 15341.  The symbols on
the graphs will no doubt be other than the author intended, but the
meaning is clear enough. 

One other problem I had was with the encoded sections of the prolog.  No 
pages were printed until I removed lines 403-522, i.e. from 
"ok userdict/stretch known not"... to the second "cleartomark".

Hope this helps.
