Hi George, I think if you print by lpr, youmay be hitting this bug,
JDS-Nevada]Firefox3.x crashes when useing "Print to LPR" http://monaco.sfbay.sun.com/detail.jsf?cr=6747225 Also noted if you create a print queue using Remote LPD with the new print manger (which is functionality the same as Add Access to printer.. on Solaris LP Print Manager), but with a different. Soloris LP Print manger doesn't update your $HOME/.printers, but Print Manager does. Since your printers entry in /etc/nssswitch.conf says user,files, Phaser2 will not appear in the Firefox print dialog because the queue added is not in $HOME/.printers. I think having 2 Print mangers on the menu is confusing especially they have different behaviors. anyway, that is another day of work. So I look forwards to the information from you with the new Print manager :) Thanks, -Ghee George Koutras wrote: > Hi Ghee, > > I send you the setup as it is atm using the "Solaris lp printer manager". > > The steps to setup this: > 1.
