You're sending PostScript to the printer. Are you sure the printer can
consume PostScript? And if so, are you sure that it also is set to ac-
cept PostScript (some printers can be set to PCL-only, if they do sup-
port both languages).

OOo is known to sometimes generate problematic PostScript. Have a look at

and see if that helps you.
