how do I get the OO.org printer or perhaps 'system' configured printer configured correctly under Mozilla1.6?

edit unix.js,.....

Found the file /opt/mozilla/defaults and the 'pref("print.printer_list"' part. What should be the name added between the quotes, what my printer is (Epson Stylus 800+). or what the system identifies it as as?(Epson Stylus 800 Foomatic/stcolor (recommended))

from the command-line, do: lpq the results will list your printer queue name. That is the name to use. $lpq Printer is ready No entries $

lpstat -a will list *all* your printer queues $lpstat -a printer accepting requests since Jan 01 00:00 $

leave it like it came. It prints to lpr which should print to the default printer. should is also relative :) Especially since I use CUPS and not lpr/d

...

Do I need to do anything after changing the unix.js source file?

restart the application so it reloads it's config files. OK, that figures

Prudent use of the man files will answer many of your questions. Prudent or exhaustive use of the man files did not help me.

Remember linux is a continual learning experience. That should be CONTINUAL!!!! :))
