Dear All

Mandrake 10.1, CUPS and all applications

OK this is my fault, I know.  Sorry.

I was able to print from every application using the kprinter --stdin 
command.  The only problem was Mozilla.  When I printed out an e-mail 
words were missing from the end of each line.  I got some tech support 
from Mandrake Expert, to try xpp in the Print Command of Mozilla.  I did 
but there was no improvement.  While in Mozilla I decided to put back 
kprinter --stdin into the Print Command box.

Now printing from any application using kprinter does not work.  I get 
an error message:
"Error while reading filter description for true (true was in bold). 
Empty command line received".

What have I done ?

How do I correct it ?

Desperately yours

Stephen
