Printing has been broken for me for several releases of Maple whichever
version of Fedora I have been using the past couple of years. However with
the replacement of the java jre as per my link it works 100% for me in
Maple13 running in Fedora 11.

I don't know what version of java they embedded in their install disk but I
think that is the main culprit - but yes reporting to Maple devs is
certainly a good idea.  However this also highlights a problem with Iced Tea
- till now I have not had a need to use anything other than the open source
java and it is a shame I now have to install Sun Java to get Maple to work!
