Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: firefox-3.5
When I try to print from firefox, the print dialog that appears lists my
printers, and has a "print" button at the lower-right.
When my default printer ("home-laserjet") is selected, then the "print"
button is greyed-out, and cannot be clicked.
If I select any other printer from the list, then the "print" button
becomes enabled, and printing works fine.
This is with firefox 3.5.3+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu3 on Karmic, amd64.
The only things I can think of that make "home-laserjet" different from the
other printers are:
1) it is the default printer
2) it is a remote printer on an IPP server (it uses an ipp:// URL pointing to
my cups-running server downstairs), while all the other printers use socket://
or hp:// URLs to point to the printer directly. This has caused weird problems
before: see bug #258104
I'll attach screenshots showing the print dialog.
