Printing from firefox

[The Liquidator]

Just wondering whether anyone has found a way yet around the inability of Firefox to utilise the kde printing resources?

Thanks

Re: Printing from firefox

I'm able to print from Firefox to a shared Windows Printer. What exactly happens when you push the print button?

Re: Printing from firefox

The firefox (or TBird) dialog box comes up, indicating printing, but there is no opportunity to select a printer and no print actually appears.

In Hardy this worked by opening about:config in firefox and changing a number of the print options in there to say "kprinter". I lost this when upgrading to intrepid I think, or perhaps it might have been a firefox update.

At this point the only way I can print a web page is to save it as a web page, open it in konqueror, and print it from Konq. I think this is a linux-wide problem and not just 'buntu.
