Enabling the PostScript error handler

50 Phaser 780 Color Laser Printer
The error handling utility helps diagnose problems when a job doesn't print; it
provides a PostScript error-handling function to help determine the cause of some
PostScript printing problems. When the error handler is enabled, PostScript errors
and other status information are printed. This utility is useful for debugging
PostScript code.
