OK, tried this, still with 3.1.4.

    -r1440x1440 -dModel=15 -dQuality=6 -dDither=4

Interesting results.  The PostScript draws, amongst other things, two
lines from opposite corners of the A4 page crossing in the middle.  The
bottom half of the page (printed last) has some good looking,
continuous lines.  The top half has regular gaps in the lines and some
horizontal lines haven't been printed.  The difference is exactly at
the point where the diagonal lines cross, i.e. the half-way point.

OK, thanks, will try this.  Thought the above result might be
interesting anyway.  I'll get 3.1.5 first and move onto CVS later.
