I tried to setup printing from Emacs for buffers with the
Euro sign (€) several times (see
e.g. <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.pretest.bugs/9536>,
<http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.pretest.bugs/9433>),
but I failed.
Following you suggestion, now I tried:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(require 'ps-mule)
(setq
;; Pick one:
ps-multibyte-buffer 'bdf-font
;; ps-multibyte-buffer 'bdf-font-except-latin
bdf-directory-list '("/usr/share/fonts/bdf"))
(setq rs-tmp "€uro, Umläüté, ... ÄÖÜ äöü ß ¡¿Ññ")
(ps-print-buffer-with-faces "/tmp/ps-mule-bdf.ps")
;; Local Variables:
;; coding: iso-8859-15
;; End:
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
/usr/share/fonts/bdf$ rpm -qfi .

Summary : Fonts from the GNU Intlfonts Package in BDF Format
Description :
Fonts from the GNU intlfonts package in the BDF format.
These fonts are useful for printing exotic languages such as Thai,
Tibetan, Vietnamese, Arabic, and more from within Emacs.

~$ emacs-cvs -Q /tmp/print-test.el
[ emacs-cvs is thee CVS trunk of today. ]
`M-x eval-buffer RET' gives "Font for some characters not found,
continue anyway? (y or n) " and the following warning buffer:
,----
| These characters in the buffer can't be printed:
| €
| Click them to jump to the buffer position,
| or C-u C-x = will give information about them.
`----
`C-u C-x =' says:
character: € (3876, #o7444, #xf24, U+20AC)
charset: latin-iso8859-15
(The same with `ps-multibyte-buffer' to 'bdf-font or
'bdf-font-except-latin)
When setting `ps-multibyte-buffer' to 'bdf-font-except-latin, I get a
hollow square instead of the € in the PS file.
When setting `ps-multibyte-buffer' to 'bdf-font, the gs can't display
the PS file:
