[ jEdit-users ] Printing Problem

From: Dan <dan.stone@sc...> - 2008-12-19 13:36

Hello,

I am running jedit 4.2 final on Ubuntu 8.10 64 bit.  I run the gnome 
display manager but not the gnome desktop.

When I try to print from jedit, nothing seems to happen.  The file is 
not printed and I don't get any kind of error message.  I get the same 
behavior if I switch to the old printing API.

I set my printer up with cups 1.3.9 and I can print ok from the command 
line using lp.  (lpr doesn't work at all on my system.  It adds files to 
the queue, but the queue is stalled with a "warning: no daemon 
present."  However, according to lpq,  jedit is not adding files to the  
queue.)

As you might have guessed, I don't understand the relationship between 
cups, lp and lpq.

One more potential clue: I can print ok from other applications such as 
eclipse (which I think is a java app.) and gedit.

Many thanks for your help.

-Dan

Hello Dan,
I had the same problem with OpenSuse 11.0. I solved it changing the Sun JDK 
with the IBM JDK.

Latest JDK works again. It has been fixed with u10.

Really? I tried jdk1.6.0_11, but without any success. The IPP report 
complains: "no page found", or something like that. Is there something special 
to do?
Thanks in advance

I think you have a different problem. Could it be that your 'lpr' is
not from CPUS but that you have installed two print systems on the
system? I don't know whether Java users 'lpr' (or 'lp') or libcpus
directly.
