My IRS Form 1040A appeared as a print preview of the actual document to
send to the IRS. But neither printing it nor saving it on my computer
and printer cannot be done. I already know that printing to paper and to
file cannot be done from previous experience. So, once this problem
report is complete and sent the developers, I will attempt to
troubleshoot that issue using a technique sent to me by a Ubuntu
volunteer (engineer?). External to this issue is that the IRS electronic
forms program known as FreeFile produced by a contractor has yet to
reveal to me how to e-file my completed tax return to the IRS. It seems
to me that completing a simple tax return by pen on a paper IRS form and
mailing it via USPS is a lot easier than doing it via computer and
electronic filing over telecommunications lines. A lesson here for all
of us is that using a computer to prepare and print/save/file/send
anything one time takes much longer to learn and perform than doing it
by pre-computer hand method. Tax return programs, for example, are only
useful for persons who have no arithmetic ability and/or have a need for
the program to interpret the tax code and fill in a space on a form for
an uneducated taxpayer. That is not an issue with Linux Ubuntu, I will
admit, but I am spending a lot of time using this platform after
recently have been persuaded that Linux Ubuntu is better that Windows
XP. ( as wll as learning how to complete a simple form  according to a
government contractor's computerized program.)
