...A new device 'eps2write' has been added which allows for the creation of EPS files using the ps2write device instead of the old (deprecated and removed) pswrite device. This produces considerably better quality EPS files than the old epswrite device which is now also deprecated and will be removed in a future release...

We have to update scripts/plot/util/print.m, _print_parse_opts_.m and _ghostscript_.m

bug #42534 shows the error message when printing to ps from octave with gs 9.14:

>> plot(1:2,"o-");
>> print("testplot.ps","-debug")
...
-sOutputFile="testplot.ps" C:UsersHEDEROApp
DataLocalTempoct-2.ps - & rm C:UsersHEDEROAppDataLocalTempoct-2.ps'
Unknown device: pswrite
Unrecoverable error: undefined in .uninstallpagedevice

    defaultdevice
