1.
The thread explains that one solution is to set CUPS to render into PS 
Level 2 before sending to printer.

Thanks. But a fair about of bumbling about leaves me in the dark about 
how to do that. CUPS has me in my cups. How do I set it to render into 
PS Level 2?

2.
Mozilla does support about:config (typed into the browse address), 
thanks, I did not know about it. But there is no userprefs.* for 
anything. I did change print.postscript.nativefont.jp from null to EUC. 
(is that what I needed to do?)

That made no difference: kanji still boxes.

So, it looks like this can work, if only I knew more.

More instructions would be much appreciated.
