> Im printing to a local cups printer. Do you mean you're printing to the one firefox labels as "CUPS/printer", or to printer@:64 ? If it's the latter then you probably need to run "dpkg-reconfigure xprint-common" and set the resolution of your printer, see /usr/share/doc/xprint-common/README.printing-problems.gz.

Was Drew's advice helpful Chris? Yes All the printers listed in the print diolog now behave, though they still dont pickup settings like paper size from the cups settings. No Xprint printers seem to exist in the new firefox package, they do still appear in mozilla though. It seems quite ridiculous that Xprint only allows one resolution for all printers. -- Chris Jones, SUCS Admin http://sucs.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

It was switched off temporarily while the Xprint packages were being prepared for the new modular X11R7. Please be aware that TrueType fonts are currently not detected in the latest system. They are expected to be restored later this month when X11R7.1 is released. > It seems quite ridiculous that Xprint only allows one resolution for > all printers. Separated settings can be set up by hand in the Xprint config files, but you're right it is in principle a nuisance. I have hopes of developing a more aware Xprint in the future, but that's dependent on the development of the OpenPrinting libraries, which are still alpha and new.
