Richard (or anyone else interested),

It seems astonishing that these *basic* Postscript capabilities are this
buggy on the printer!

Anyway, by way of another elimination:
http://www.ghostscript.com/~chrisl/brother-nofont-04.ps

On a *functional* Postscript interpreter, that prints 3 "A" characters
across the centre of the page - these are just bitmaps, they are not
contained in a font of any kind. What they have is three different ways
of storing the data. I'm trying to eliminate the various data filters
available in Postscript as being the source of the problem.

NOTE: there is bare binary data in this file, and that can sometimes cause 
problems with communication channels, if that proves to be the case and you get 
an error from the printer, please try this one:
