Re: Abiword print problem



A small update.

I have tried installing the same Abiword package on another system - also running 5.3R, but with Gnome installed.

On that system printing works fine - both with the original "lpr" print-command and with "lpr -Plp".

Does the Abiword package "behave" differently when Gnome is installed?

Best regards,

I have installed AbiWord2-2.0.11 (from a package) on a FreeBSD 5.3R system - but I can only print blank pages.

With the default Abiword print command (lpr) nothing happens. When I change the command to "lpr -Plp" I get blank pages - the correct number of pages, but all blank.

The printer is a brother PostScript (or BrotherScript) printer connected to the parallel port. I can print from Mozilla without problems.

I have seen this problem mentioned in the mailing-list archive - any solutions?

The only programmes installed on the system are AbiWord and Mozilla (the "harddisk" is a 1GB flash card), so I only installed whatever dependencies Abiword and Mozilla needed.
