Any version of ESP Ghostscript is compatible with all versions of
CUPS >= 1.1.11, which is when the "cups-config" script was added.

Are you sure the rangecheck happens because of the page size?

You should be able to just run gs with those options and enter the
following PS commands to trigger the error if so:

     << /PageSize [ 312 425 ] >> setpagedevice

If that doesn't trigger the error, then the problem lies in one of
the other commands...
