Found problem. Mozilla printing crash (segmentation fault) is apparently caused by VLC media player plug-in. I removed VLC media player plug-in and Mozilla is back to normal and printing OK.

Hi,

please submit the crash report by (double) clicking on it (e.g. using gnome file manager). Otherwise, we won't be able to process it efficiently. The .crash files can be found in the /var/crash directory.

Thanks,
- Alexander
