Works for me, which version of cups are you using? * net-print/cups
Latest version available: 1.1.23
Latest version installed: 1.1.23
I just merged xoo 1.3.7 yesterday and tried to print today. My printers were available to other apps, such as gedit, so I merged xoo 1.3.6 and they came back, so I fugured there's something wrong w/ xoo 1.3.7.
I have the same problem&same cups version.

CUPS printers.conf With 4 Printers Defined
I don't know if this is a problem, but when I add/create a printer via CUPS, I
let foomatic generate the PPD but then I go into the /etc/cups/ppd directory
and rename the generated .ppd file to one that is more descriptive of my
printer. I then modify the printers.conf file so each <Printer> entry refers
to the specific printer.
For example <Printer Home_Phaser_7700DN> is the beginning of the printer
definition for one of my printers. I think the defualt was something like
<Printer Tektronix-7700DN>.
After doing the renaming of PPDs and modifying of the printers.conf, I'll
restart the CUPS daemon.
Again, I don't know if this would have any effect, but I figured I would
mention it since it is a little non-standard.
The emerge of openoffice-ximian-1.3.7 with no printers defined in CUPS completed. The only option in the print dialog from xwriter was "Generic Printer". I'm re-emerging with four printers defined (restored my printers.conf file). I'm having the same problem -- before I updated to 1.3.7, openoffice-ximian saw my CUPS printers. Afterwards, no joy. Other apps can print to the CUPS printers. I have 3 printers defined. $ genlop -i openoffice-ximian Install date: Sat Jan 22 15:15:04 2005 USE="gnome java kde zlib -curl -hardened -nptl" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -pipe -fno-stack-protector -fno-strict-aliasing" cups-1.1.23-r1 I've just added a fix for this to the ebuild, so please give the mirrors some time to catch up, then emerge sync and rebuild openoffice-ximian. I also have to point out, that I had to redo my user install to get printing to work again, so if you still have the problem after rebuilding, delete your ~/.xopenoffice and ~/.xversionrc-files, at least for me it works now without problems again. Thanks for reporting and helping out to nail this one down! |
