The key is maybe that I use those settings not to process the

Maybe it is what makes the difference ?
How? Is there any reason why GNU Emacs should send different PS code to
the *PostScript* buffer then to the printer queue?
I wouldn't buy a printer without PostScript, so I do not have any need
to use gs between GNU Emacs or another application and the printer. And
it's modern enough to be able to print € or ISO 8859-16 glyphs. It's
CUPS that finally takes care for a good printout, being able to convert
text to PS too?
There is just one need for gs: to view GNU Emacs' output or to convert
this output reliably to PDF. Apple's own pstopdf in Mac OS X fails as
does any other application when made to display this: they all first
need to convert PS to PDF to make it display (as "Display PDF") in
Quartz.
