[newbie] printing emails and webpages - print jammed up and missing

2005-02-23 Thread Rosemary McGillicuddy
Since using linux I have noticed this problem printing emails and 
webpages.  Soemtimes words are printed over each over, and lines at end 
of page on emails are lost.  I've looked at setting because I feekl sure 
I've had this problem before and it was easy to fix, but not making 
progress. Thanks
Rosemary

I see you are using Thunderbird, so probably the same method is needed for 
both problems.  When you print from a webpage (I'm assuming FF is the same as 
Moz) there is , by default a command string beginning, I think, with lpr.  
Delete that and put in xpp or kprinter (your choice, both work) which will 
give you access to your printer set up as you use it for other apps.
