   I grabbed the file and tried it just a few minutes ago.  I don't get as
   many errors as you did.  And it produces obviously buggy, but recognizable
   output.  You probably ran it through an obsolete unprinter.

That was before the ESCi bug fix.

   Of the less serious errors, the most interesting ones I get are:

   Warning: Unknown command ESC 0x1.        Secret init string?
   Warning: Unknown command ESC ( 0x52.     ESC ( R?
That's this "remote mode" thing that I've never found any
documentation for.
   Warning: Unknown command ESC 0x0.        The null command?
   Warning: Unknown command ESC ( 0x44.     ESC ( D?
THIS is the magic command that I don't understand.  Karl, when you
have a chance, could you try commenting it out and see if it still
prints or not?

   All of these occure while parsing the header.  Once the raster data
   starts coming there are no more errors.

   It may be time to send another message to /dev/nu^H^H^H^H^H^H^HEpson
   techincal support and see if they are willing to comment on this.
   I think I'll go do that.

Good luck (I haven't had any!)
