Title:
Firefox 5 for Ubuntu 1.0 issues undefined command to printer; page
setup reverts to Any Printer for Portable Documents
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Since upgrading to Firefox 5, on Ubuntu 11.04, I can't print from
Firefox to my networked printer. I get an error printout from the
printer saying: "ERROR NAME: undefined COMMAND: Q OPERAND STACK: "
instead of the document printout. Looking at the Page Setup dialog
in Firefox 5, I see that it is set for printing to a portable format
called "Any Printer" rather than set to my default printer which is a
Brother HL-4250DN on the LAN ethernet. Trying to change the printer
by pulling down the list in that diaglog and selecting the Brother
does not maintain the setting after I click "Apply". When I look
after applying and closing the dialog and reopening, it has reverted
back to Any Printer, not the Brother. I think this is why the print
command from Firefox sends faulty format data to my printer. It's not
the printer driver's fault. The same printer works fine on other
programs that print, such as LibreOffice, the document viewer for pdf,
and Chromium for web sites. It's something wrong in Firefox that
won't hold the printer selected in Page Setup. This same hardware
used to work on earlier Firefox 3.x.x and 4.x betas. Since I upgraded
(by clean installation) to Ubuntu 11.04, I can't print from Firefox 5.
Version of Firefox is latest: 5.0+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.11.04.2.
Screenprint of dialog is attached.
