Applixware: Printing

Applies to

SuSE Linux: All versions
Applix: Version 4.3, 4.3.5, 4.3.7

Request:

You want to print from Applixware, however the printer doesn't react at all. Only a Postscript file gets created or some arbitrary characters appear in the printout.

Procedure:

Before you can print from Applixware directly, the printer must have been created in YaST®. Please consult the chapter "printers" in the S.u.S.E. Linux manual and also read Printer : checklist, if problems occur.

It is a necessary precondition, that it is possible to print Postscript files using the command lpr

The following steps must be performed in order to print from Applixware :

  1. Choose File -> Print ...

  2. From the list of available printers choose lp. You may not choose Postscript here.

  3. Choose PostScript as Class

  4. The option Print to File must be deactivated.

  5. The document will now be printed by clicking on the OK button.
