I set print.print_printer to PostScript/Default, not lpr. But it does not seem to matter. New preferences can be made by right-clicking anywhere in about:config and selecting "New". It does not seem possible to remove such preferences once they are created. But the setting of print.postscript.cups.enabled also did not matter. I changed it from "false" to "true" and I can still print. I cannot remember exactly which other about:config print things I changed, but I now tried several other things, and none seem to matter. I hope you get it sorted out. Which version exactly did you download from gtk.org? Mine is gtk+-2.10.13. Tarball was called gtk+-2.10.13.tar.bz2 (an "older" version, not the "stable" 2.12 version). BTW Mumia W., according to his message, stores his newly-compiled gtk in an "exotic" location. I didn't do this. /usr/local (the default when you compile from gtk.org) is exotic enough. Stuff which is installed there has priority over similarly-named stuff in /usr. Do you have a printer named lp in printcap? (Or named as an alternative, such as LaserJet|lp ?). Well, I suppose you do. Regards, Jan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
