I have now investigated a bit further the printing problems on Mac.
It seems that the code that was working very well for OOo 1.1, is mostly working
quite well for OOo 2.0 Mac also. There are, however, some bugs:
1) possible threading issues. When debug messages are enabled, the messages
appear in very weird orders, suggesting that there are several threads running
printer configuration at the same time, when OOo launches.
(#define OSL_DEBUG_LEVEL 2 and #define DEBUG 1 in files:
psprint/source/printer/printerinfomanager.cxx
psprint/source/helper/helper.cxx
psprint/source/helper/ppdparser.cxx
2) the lack of SGENPRT -ppd. The default printing system for Mac 10.2 and later
is CUPS. That system is configured for OOo so that it needs to find
./driver/SGENPRT{.ps/.ppd} -file in somewhere of the printing configuration
directories. Without it, no printers are found on my Mac. Copying the file from
psprint_config/configuration/ppds/SGENPRT.PS to
<.app dir>/Contents/openoffice.org2.0/share/psprint/driver/
allows my printers be found (in addition to the default printer)
On Mac, that file SGENPRT.PS should be packaged into .app.
