Scenario:
2 machines, both running OpenSuSE 10.  One has a Canon BJC-250 attached to
it.

Initially, the printer was hooked up to machine A.
Everything ran fine.

A few days ago, we switched the printer to machine B.  We now have the
following problem (there are others, but one thing at a time):

1. Printing from machine B (the local machine) using Firefox:

same '/rangecheck' error when sending output from Lyx, or when sending
postscript files via lpr.

HOWEVER... viewing the same postscript files directly, using 'gs', works
fine. As far as I can tell, it's the same ghostscript in both cases.

(printing the CUPS test page works fine, also.)

No idea how to debug from here.
