Hello everybody,

in short: Firefox does not print.

in detail: I am using Firefox V1.0.6 (as delivered with OpenSuse 10.0). Whenever I try to print something, it is discarded by Cups. The Cups Server (V1.1.15) is running on SuSE8.1. I checked the logfiles and it seems to me, that a filter named "pstops" fails with an errorlevel 1 during the process. When I route the printout to a file (e.g. mozilla.ps) it is viewable whith gs. It is convertable with ps2pdf (which in fact is gs). The resulting pdf file is printable (when using acroread or converting it back with pdf2ps).

I exchanged the pstops filter with the version from Cups 1.1.23. The exit code is then 127, but the printout still fails.

Any ideas ?

Bye, Torsten...
