Hmm, that's odd. I presume you mean you tried to print to one of the :64
Xprint printers. You'll want to do a battery of checks:
1) Is Xprt running? "ps aux | grep Xprt"
(if not, "/etc/init.d/xprint start" might help)
2) Are the printers known by Xprint? "xplsprinters"
2b) If not, is the environment variable XPSERVERLIST set? "echo
$XPSERVERLIST"
(If not, restarting X might help, as the variable is set for an X
session when the session starts up)
3) Does the test program work? "xphelloworld -print <your_printer>"
4) Does firefox also fail?
5) Switch Xprint off ("/etc/init.d/xprint stop") and run by hand from
the command line using the same working command you got in Q1, something
like
/usr/bin/Xprt -ac -pn -nolisten tcp -audit 4
-fp
/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1,/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType,/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi,/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi/,/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi,/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi/,/usr/share/fonts/X11/cyrillic,/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc
:64
Then when you print from mozilla, do any error messages appear at the
command window?
Good luck!
