Felix joined us on #ghostscript and with his help, I narrowed the problem down to the fonts in the file.

The way ps2write currently works is that it writes a pfb (binary encoded Type 1 Postscript font) and ASCII85 encodes it so the binary data doesn't trip up the communications channels.

The Kyocera printer here seems unable to cope with the pfb font data, it seems to require it in pfa (ASCII encoded Type 1 Postscript font).

We'll investigate solutions, and report back.
