Large plots on HP DesignJet 650c

[Ronald Wiemer]

Hi,

Although I can print GRASS ps.map images  on my hp 650c, I am not able to 
produce large complex plots. When the PS file is bigger then about 7 
megs, my plotter gives an out of memory message, and does not produce 
any output at all. A solution that might solve the problem is by 
using ghostscript. However, a sample plot produced by ghostscript only came 
out partly correct. After a few proper looking inches, the plotter 
produced garbage. I am quite sure that the binary file was not 
converted to ascii or something like that,  so I suppose I have 
configured ghostscript wrongly. Can someone give me a clue on how to 
convert a postscript file to DesignJet HPGL?

Thanks,
