A graphics program we use (MATLAB) generates graphic outputs. These
may be saved onto a file. The usual procedure we follow in order
to print these files on a postscript printer is:

1) generate the matlab file:   xxxx.met
2) use the command
gpp -dps xxxx
which converts xxxx.met into xxxx.ps
3) use the lpr command to print the xxxx.ps file

now i have a complicated graph whose postscript file is 
of length 708296 and the printer refuses to print it
(presumably because it's too long).

====> IS THERE A WAY TO PRINT SUCH A POSTSCRIPT FILE?

please send answers to me since i don't usually read this newsgroup. 

Thank you very much,
