Description Joachim Breitner 2008-11-06 19:54:07 UTC 
This is reported as http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=489707:

==============================================
Galeon versions 2.0.5 and 2.0.6 cannot print anymore; they say:

 There was a problem printing. No printers could be found.

 Check whether the "XPSERVERLIST" envrionment variable contains at
 least one valid Xprint server. For further information see
 http://xprint.mozdev.org or http://www.mozilla.org/projects/xprint/.


xphelloworld works OK.
==============================================

Checking with 2.0.7, it does not work either. I don’t think it’s directly Xprint related, looking at the code, the above error message is produced whenever the list of available printers is empty. I assume something is not right in the gecko glue commited as
http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/galeon?view=revision&revision=8950
by Philip Langdale, but this is just a wild guess.

Obviously, it would be nice if this could be fixed, as printing is quite crucial.

This is a big regression and a major source of annoyment.

There is a patch attached to bug 555360, but we should use GtkPrint*.
