Do you imply that typing "print" does result in printed output for  
your postscript printer?

I had not considered writing a script to modify the bounding box.

As we are now using ghostscript in the print.m function, perhaps it  
makes sense to use ghostscript to recalculate the proper bounding-box,  
and the replace the bounding-box produced by gnuplot with one the  
tight version calculated by ghostscript.

I'll work on a change-set for that.
