Subject: HP Laserjet III choking on Laser Prep (Help!)

I've had difficulty in getting an HP Laserjet III (with PostScript) to print
postscript files using the Laser Prep from Apple, which includes a string of
characters including "1ab3". Each time it chokes on "1ab3" but such files print
okay on other printers. Can anybody help explain it to me? Is this a known
limitation with the implementation of PostScript on the HPLJ 3? Is there
any easy solution?  (I can supply more information if needed.)

Thanks in advance,
