On my Mac with octave-2.1.69 and octave-forge, I got the error message "can
only plot in 2 or 3 dimensions" when I tried to update my print and legend
to use the __gnuplot_replot__ routine in order to eliminate the warning
messages associated with use of gset, which is now deprecated, but used by
the older versions of print and legend. If I use the print and legend that
came with the Nov. 2004 octave-forge, I get warning messages, but everything
works. Have you tried to update print to use the octave-2.9.x versions of
print?
