Here is a summary, though the responses didn't solve my problem.
The string printed out is a control string to the printer,
that tells the printer to enter PJL mode.
I use the print filter script shipped with the JetDirect software
so it seems that it must be another (timing ?) problem.
This is my initial message:

We have a HP LaserJet 4M+ connected through
ethernet to a Solaris 2.4 print server.
When we print a singel postscript page
there is always an extra page at the end, only containing
^[%-12345X
Has anyone experineced this ?
