[moneydance] linux - java - cups testing

[Doug B]

There is another thing that was pointed out on the page Sean pointed to:

There is one additional step to the workaround for at least some 
systems. JDK looks for "libcups.so". This is usually a symlink to the 
specific version, e.g. "libcups.so.2", but on systems without a 
developer package it may not exist. The solution is to locate the cups 
library on your system and if necessary create a symbolic link. For 
example:

cd /usr/lib
ln -s libcups.so.2 libcups.so

You might check that out on your box.  I have the symlink to 
libcups.so.2 on my box.  I tried renaming the symlink then printing to 
see if I could create the error.  Everything still worked.  I even 
restarted cupsd... just in case.  Printing still worked.

The problem being addressed here is with cups 1.2.*  Is that what you 
are running?

Vist the page Sean pointed to ( 
http://www.cups.org/articles.php?L433+I0+T+P1+Q ).  It lists the 
workarounds.  

About a year ago, there were printing problems that were reported to be 
caused by ghostscript 8.15.  I wasn't affected so didn't really look at 
anything.  You might check to see if you have ghostscript installed and 
what version it is.

Beyond that, I'm at a loss for now.
