Title:
Can't print specific types of pages (cross-platform issue)
Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: chromium-browser
Chrome & Chromium Stable (at least) all versions 8.x & 9.x have been unable
to print certain types of pages which are designed to be printed. This is a
cross-platform issue; there are reports found from at least Linux & Windows
that I've seen.
Problem pages include many major websites on the Net who generate custom,
on-demand pages designed to be printed, including:
Google Map Directions
Mapquest Map Directions
Amazon shipping data
United States Postal Service labels
PayPal/Ebay Shipping Labels
Static pages seem to print just fine, it's only these generated on-the-fly
pages that fail.
Here are just a few of the other reports:

As for myself, I'm using Mint 10 (Ubuntu Maverick Gnome), I have the
same failure with any version of Chromium Stable or Chrome Stable,
using my HP Laserjet 4L--all other programs print fine with this
printer . Like reporters on other platforms, if I simply switch to
another browser, (firefox for example) these pages print perfectly.
For me, the printed error messages all look similar to:
Error: /unknownerror in --.postinstall--
Operand stack:
--dict:7/16(l) --di
Thanks,
Lance
