Read http:///www.mozilla.org/projects/xprint/, http://xprint.mozdev.org/docs/Xprint_FAQ.html and launch a XPrint print server on a remote Linux box. 2. $SET XPSERVERLIST=linux:33 3. Launch Mozilla. 4. Open print dialog. Actual Results: Print dialog offers Postscript/Default as only printer. Expected Results: Print dialog should offer all printers on the XPrint printing server. Analysis of the package files shows that the XPrint code is missing completely.
Wrong component. In any case, what options the package is compiled with is up to the person taking their time to contribute the package. Feel free to contact them and ask them to compile with xprint or to find someone else to compile with xprint.

I haven't ported any of the Xprint stuff to OpenVMS. Don't think there's much call for it since OpenVMS doesn't have an Xprint server (as far as I know). FYI, I'm not the OpenVMS maintainer anymore.
Mr Blake...I disagree, we could use the Linux XPrint server on a Debian machine. Who is in charge of constructing OpenVMS Mozilla packages right now when you are not responsible anymore?

I would suggest you contact the OpenVMS eBusiness Product Manager. That's John.L.Ferguson@hp.com
Any news from HP ?
(or better: Did anyone tried to contact HP yet ? :)
