If you want to eliminate the file size limitation, you could add 
":mx#0:" to the printer's entry in /etc/printcap.  Alternatively, you 
could increase the limit.  I think it defaults to 1000kB (See "man 
printcap").

Greetings !

I get the message that the file is too large and only part of the file
is printed.

I've tried the -s option but no improvement.

Any solution ?

Gratefully,
Courtney
