I'm told the next version of Ubuntu (9.04), current in Alpha test stage, will not have the problem I reported. I wonder, however, if you are seeing something else. I can't imagine why the driver telling the printer to use the Postscript level 2 instruction subset would cause a memory overflow. If you're not adverse to conducting a small science project, could you load the "correct" driver for your printer and then do the mod on the /etc/cups/nameofdriver.ppd file, but instead of changing the "3" to "2", could you instead change the "3" to a "1" ? The other other work-around that you might want to try is to enter the Ubuntu printer administration utility. From the top panel: system > administration > printing right click on your printer, click properties then click on the "change" button on the line that reads "make and model." from there, select /usr/share/ppd/cups-included/postscript.ppd to load the generic postscript driver.
