Glad you like paps. :-) Do you mind doing the following two steps:

Found it. There is an initial debug line in the beginning of the output file that causes the magic number for postscript files to fail:
This has been fixed in version 0.8.0 . Since this has been fixed upstream, in this repo, you should report this bug to Fedora. Please add a link to the Fedora bug to this issue for cross reference. |

For the last ten or so years, I've relied on enscript and then paps. I think that I switched to paps because enscript at the time didn't support utf-8 (as best I can tell, it still doesn't).
paps has worked as designed for me until the upgrade/fresh install to Fedora 38. My sole availabe printer is an HP P3015. On my desktop, I use the HP Postscript driver; on my laptop I use the HP LaserJet p3010 Series hpijs pcl3, 3.22.10 driver for the printer.
When printing from a web browser (firefox of brave), libreoffice, evince, AcroRead, or gedit, the results are correct.
But now with the flip to F38, and issuing a paps command like this (which I've run for a decade):
paps --columns=3 --landscape --paper=letter --font="Monospace 6" /path/to/some/textfile | lpr -P lp3
the printer prints raw postscript.
(lp3 is the name that I use for the HP printer)
Could it be pango (required by paps)? some other possible dependency? Are there alternatives? Is there some nuance in configuring the printer that now needs to done with Fedora 38?
The latest paps version that is used on Fedora 37 is paps-0.7.1-5.fc37.x86_64
The latest paps version that is used on Fedora 38 is paps-0.7.9-1.fc38.x86_64
Much thanks for your help. I'm happy to help in testing to
