I believe you are referring to the same problem as I posted in PR ports/52187. I had also reported this directly to the ports list, as the maintainer is ports@freebsd.org, about 1-2 weeks prior to filing the PR. I posted another request for someone to look at the PR prior to the latest ports freeze. Basically, printing has been broken on FreeBSD for greater than a month, and with a release of 5.1 to boot. -- Glenn Johnson glennpj@charter.net
