Subject: netatalk with ghostscript on a Sun

I downloaded Ghostscript V2.5, configured and loaded it onto my Sun to run
a HP Paintjet that was just sitting there, and Viola! Instant Color
Postscript printer. Good Stuff! Unfortunatly the Macintosh users noticed
and now they want to use it also. So I went out and got netatalk Version
2.1.1. After configuring it I had something that showed up on the Mac's. I
downloaded macps version 23 and fixed up the procset ... and tried to
spool a job from the Mac. Job was accepted by the sun, placed in the spool
directory, ... and disappeared from the face of the earth. I stoped the
spooler and grabbed the data file. Both with and without the leading
procset (applied via macps) gs produces the following error:

What am I doing wrong and has anybody else set up something similar? Any
pointers that anybody can give me on getting this going would be greatly
appreciated.
