Stan,
I've just printed successfully from gnumeric on 10.4.2. I've got an Epson C80 hooked up on an Airport Extreme basestation (USB) thru Rendezvous or whatever Apple's calling it nowadays. I printed as lpr from gnumeric, just standard. It works. I had to go back and manipulate the margins because the default was 0 on all four (top, bottom, left, right), but that's easy to change. The only other problem I had is that everywhere I've got averages it only printed five pound signs (#####). I figured out that changing the format of those cells to a fixed decimal that would fit inside the cell let it print the number. A little weird but I can work with that. Also, print preview works like a charm. It even showed the #####'s on the page. Very quick on printing too, after the first go. First one took about 30 seconds, the rest (I've tested printed five times now) all under 5 seconds to get started. Since it goes through the lpr command it doesn't launch the OS X GUI print utility thing so don't look for that to pop into your dock.
Good luck on upgrading,
Brandon

No,
The only way I've printed so far is to save as html and then print what I needed from Safari. I've not played around with it since I've updated. If I have any luck I'll let you know. The path is required because of the following (only after upgrading to Tiger):


Ice-Wolf:~ gbp$ gnumeric
dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found: _EVP_idea_cbc
  Referenced from: /sw/lib/libssl.0.9.7.dylib
  Expected in: /usr/lib/libcrypto.0.9.7.dylib

dyld: Symbol not found: _EVP_idea_cbc
  Referenced from: /sw/lib/libssl.0.9.7.dylib
  Expected in: /usr/lib/libcrypto.0.9.7.dylib

Trace/BPT trap
Ice-Wolf:~ gbp$


I'm not sure what happened during the upgrade but from the archives gnucash is also affected with the same problem.
Have a good day,
Brandon

Mention of Gnumeric always gets my hopes up. I use it and have used it for some time. However, for some time I have been unable to print from the application. I have reported it in gnome bugzilla in the past and have addressed the problem in the fink lists. Others have confirmed their inability to print but no solution (to my knowledge) has been posted.

The most obvious evidence of a problem is when "Print Preview" is selected. The response is a preview page with "No visible output was created" printed in red on the page. Page setup does not allow selection of page sizes; however, the print dialog page does allow page size selection if "generic postscript" printer is chosen (using CUPS). Nothing is output to lp, however.

I would appreciate knowing whether you were able to print (with OS 10.3.9 and gnumeric - latest version at the time you switched to 10.4).

I am using XFree86, Gnome, and all updates are current in the unstable branch of Fink.

I am also curious as to what the explicit path setting accomplished.




env DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/sw/lib gnumeric




Thanks for any help you can provide.

Stan


Thanks for the report!

Stan

Wow! - it prints for me too now. I have waited so long for this. I don't know who is responsible for the fix(es), but thank you very much.

OS X 10.4.2, fink packages gnumeric 1.4.1-11 and libgnomeprint2.2 2.10.3-1
