I think the main problem is that "non-complex" in today's terms is
far more complex than "non-complex" in the days gone by. Look at the
PostScript being produced by something even as simple as BBEdit
printing syntax coloured source code. (almost) Every letter is
individually positioned and coloured. I can understand why cheap
PostScript emulation would have a headache with some of this stuff.
FWIW, my Lexmark Optra S 1855 can handle anything I throw at it. It's
ageing though, and toner cartridges are becoming harder to source,
and black & white printing is *so* last century...
