Comment 6 for bug 228215

I cannot print from anything other than OpenOffice. This is very annoying
to say the least. My windows machines, for all their other troubles, never
failed to print from any application once the correct printer driver was
loaded. Should I try OpenSuse 11.1. I have it on a test computer and kinda
like it. Thanks.
