metafont/dvips problem



I installed MusixTeX from sunsite and tried to print the documentation.

I get the following error, and the document does not print. (Something goes
to the printer, but nothing actually gets printed.):

 $ dvips -A musixdoc.dvi
 This is dvipsk 5.58f Copyright 1986, 1994 Radical Eye Software
 ' TeX output 1997.07.25:0901' -> |lpr

If I delete the pk file mentioned in the error message, the same thing
continues to happen.  It also happens with xdvi, which shows:

 $ xdvi musixdoc.dvi

 Note:  overstrike characters may be incorrect.

Can anyone tell me what is causing this error and how to cure it?

     Make it idiot-proof, and someone will breed a better idiot.
