When I print to a windows printer (HP C4100) using the seamonkey port it appears the fonts are strange. Characters on the printed page are only partially formed and mostly unreadable. Printing the same web page from windows and linux (seamonkey) CUPS produces the expected quality print. Using lpr with a text file works as expected. I think I am missing something on the FreeBSD machine, but, what?
