Hi Karl. 
This is maybe a shot in the dark, but I saw something similar when I
upgraded my ps-print package - loads of PostScript errors; no printouts.
The errors weren't exactly the same as yours, though, so maybe your
problem is a different one.

Anyway in my case, the problem stemmed from that the (PostScript)
prologue files (ps-prin*.ps) that ps-print uses had changed in the new
version (v. 5.1.5 in my case) and I needed to point ps-print to the
directory where the new (correct) files were placed:

  (setq ps-postscript-code-directory "/path/to/prologue/files/")

You mention that you have a fairly recent XEmacs - maybe something has
changed in the use of the ps-print package there?
As I said, just a shot in the dark.
