[Linux] printing compressed EPS files

[Howard Allen Cohen]

I tried to print documentation from the GNU Privacy Handbook ( 
http://www.gnupg.org/gph/index.html ), which I downloaded in "compressed 
postscript." The file has the extension  'eps," but, perhaps because it is 
compressed, it did not print when I copied it to a PostScript printer (a HP 
LJ III w/ PacificPage emulator, running in PS mode; the printer switched to 
HP LJ mode and printed garbage.

Does anyone know what to do with this file?
