Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. press print icon 2. press okay on print dialog box 3. Actual Results: A message box opened, then quickly closed. Then nothing happened. When checking with lpq, it became clear nothing was actually sent into the print queue. Problem was manually remedied by specificying /usr/bin/lpr in the printer properties
Mhhh, which Linux version (vendor, distribution and kernel version) do you use ? This works on most Unix versions, so I guess this may be a bug in the OS or distribution itself...
Summary: must specify lpr as /usr/bin/lpr → [ps] must specify lpr as /usr/bin/lpr
Since over 1 month no answer from the reporter, so closing bug as wfm. If the bug exists in newer builds (1.4 final) then look for a similar bug or reopen this bug.
