Hi all, a question to answer before another forest is cut down. I'm
using OOWriter to print an envelope and single page via CUPS to a
Lexmark Optra S. This did work fine in FC6 and I'm sure since F8 has
been installed, but not now. The document is either printed on 2 A4
sheets or 2 envelopes, not one of each.
I've tracked things to a CUPS bug
( www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=60661&highlight=envelope )
that was supposed to be fixed in version 1.3.7 used for Ubuntu. I'm
using cups-1.3.9-1.fc8. Shouldn't this bug be fixed?
This link ( www.cups.org/str.php?L2831 ) shows a patch, but what do I
do with it?
The kids are now happy with the extra colouring paper & envelopes ...
the trees will be thankful for a speedy answer - so will I.
