Reporter:
Can you try if printing via Xprint crashes, too ?

Bug 195721 (via bug 192706)?

BTW: nice typo in summary

The root cause of the problem is that this code is 
dealing  with a NULL pointer. (I am trying to install
Xprint on my system. I didn't have success in the first 
time).

One more key information is that even priting this
"about:config" to a file, by choosing "Print to a file"
also crashes.That is one more  reason to believe that 
using Xprint wouldn't avoid the crash.

Duping. though the bug i am duping to has a different summary, bugs that crash
in about:crash has been duped to that one.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 195721 ***

Attachment: about:config printed with Mozilla 2003-07-24-08-trunk_cvs and Xprint server build from xprint.mozdev.org 009 trunk

Note that printing XUL (about:config is written in XUL, not HTML) is only
half-working since pagination is not implemented - you will only see the first
page
