Yep, that is the workaround I use too.



I have seen in the help file of google maps that it is not intended to
print the satedllite image, one should use google earth instead, I tried
it and got fine prints of satellite image.


That's lame. I don't want to install and use GE for this. :( Do you 
happen to have the location to that specific print satellite image 
information?

Have you found some way in Google Earth to get more than a 1024 x 1180
pixel image? That's the best I've found in Google Earth; not quite as
good as I can grab from Google Maps using a screenshot of my big monitors.



my opinion is that the definition is not the point but the quality of 
the satellite image at high zoom level

nevertheless I got what I wanted on A4 print
I am not sure a print screen really do better, you display a poor data

Why can I print from Firefox ok but not from SeaMonkey??

This is an invalid sniffing problem that was previously discussed here.
 You have to spoof Firefox.

See bug #621619 at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621619.



OR:
Hit PrtScn, then paste the screenshot into a graphics program and print from 
there...

Ants are so much like human beings as to be an embarrassment. They farm 
fungi, raise aphids as livestock, launch armies into wars, use chemical 
sprays to alarm and confuse enemies, capture slaves. The families of 
weaver ants engage in child labor, holding their larvae like shuttles to 
spin out the thread that sews the leaves together for their fungus 
gardens. They exchange information ceaselessly. They do everything but 
watch television. --Lewis Thomas

How to print Google Map in SeaMonkey

2011-01-05 Thread Daniel

Triple boot Win7/Mandriva2009.0/Mandriva2010.1 on a HP 6730b laptop and
SeaMonkey (Build identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686 (x86_64);
en-US; rv:1.9.1.16) Gecko/20101123 SeaMonkey/2.0.11)

Cannot get 2010.1 to connect to internet YET, so using 2009.0, I wanted
to print out a Google map with directions for a Funeral I am attending
tomorrow.

After map displayed, I went to Print Preview, and then selected Print
and was presented with a blank Printer Location Status screen, and I'm
guessing that as there were no printers to select from, I could not
