Build 20020212
Mandrake Linux 8.1

I have a printer installed, but the File->Print menu option is disabled. My
other (GTK/QT) Linux apps are able to print just fine. I'm running a print
server called cupsd (Common Unix Print System).

Just to be clear: You are reporting this against the Motif version?
Comment 2 Carolyn MacLeod CLA 2002-02-13 13:16:29 EST 
Are you running the Xprt print server on :1  ?
Comment 3 Jared Burns CLA 2002-02-13 14:13:50 EST 
Question #1:
Yes. This is running the Motif version

Question #2:
I don't believe so.

The SWT printing support on X platforms is currently based on the X Printing 
System.
