This is a strong indicator that either the print engine is still busy or that
someone leaked the printer |nsIDeviceContext| ...

Works for me - I tested it with 2002-08-30-08-trunk on Solaris 2.7/SPARC (build
with Sun Workshop 7FCS) + Xprint module.

I reproduced it with latest nightly build 2002090222

Comment 3

I get connection refused when trying to access either of the referenced pages.

Comment 4

The symptom is different with BuildID 2002101922.
The first page prints correctly but the second page is not sent
to the printer and the error window "Prnter error" is not present either.

This issue should be fixed in 2003-01-14-trunk when using Mozilla's Xprint
module (this will still occur when using the PostScript module ;-(( ).

When will this release be available? 

The latest nightly build is from 12/12/02 :-(

Known problem... ;-(
I am still waiting for an account to upload my Solaris nightlies (that's bug
188135 ("Request for ftp staging permission for Roland Mainz"))

For now I am uploading my Phoenix nightlies for Solaris/SPARC under
http://puck.informatik.med.uni-giessen.de/people/gisburn/work/mozilla/phoenix/nightly/
(script runs every 1-2 days, the nightly builds only get the spare CPU time of a
Ultra5/333MHz; account on a faster/idle box welcome :)

Works for me with firefox.
