Hi Drew
Uwe, you could install firefox for comparison (which still uses
xprint).
Printing with firefox still works (if XPSERVERLIST is set, as I wrote
in my last mail). But unfortunatly printing with firefox is buggy (only
the first print job is ok, afterwards the page header and footer are
But I don't worry to set XPSERVERLIST manually, if that's enough to
make printing from firefox work.
I have rechecked that now. Looks like one of the X11 upgrades has
solved this problem. I don't have to set XPSERVERLIST in my user
environment anymore, it is set automatically.
So for firefox

As far as XPSERVERLIST goes, you're doing the right thing setting it in

Hi Drew,
I assume the X11R7 transition is finished now :).
Unfortunatly I still have the problem with the printers in mozilla.
XPSERVERLIST is not automatically set in my environment probably
because I start the X-server with startx and not with gdm. But I
explicitly set XPSERVERLIST to :64 in
Hi Uwe,
in debian Bug#371870 you lost the Xprint printers because XPSERVERLIST
was not being set in your X session at start up.
I expect this would have been a transitory problem, and restarting X
should reset XPSERVERLIST again.
Can you confirm XPSERVERLIST is routinely getting set
Hi Drew,
sorry for the delay, I was on vacation. Meanwhile I have dropped the
system completely, it was screwed-up too much :(. I'm glad it was not
my main system ...
I also got problems on my main system today where I have all Xorg
packages on hold, i.e. pinned to 6.9. But xprint got upgraded.
