The question was:
>> We have an (old) Apple LaserWriter Plus on the asynchronous port B
>> of a Sun. SunOS is 4.1.2, Newsprint is 2.0.
>> This printer is in a student room; most of the printing is output
>> of dvips.
>>
>> Too often, the printer stops working. I take a look with tip;
>> and I found the printer saying:
>>
>> %%[ Error: limitcheck; OffendingCommand: framedevice ]%%
>> %%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
>>
>>Asking the status with Control-T, I got :
>> %%[ status: waiting ]%%
>>
>>Neither Control-D nor Control-C was able to reset to a good state.

There's a problem with dvips and old LaserWriter+. It's fixed
by an upgrade of the PROM in the printer.
