[moneydance] "No print service found."

[Frank S]

The steps listed at

http://www.bastian-frank.de/site/front_content.php?idcat=13&idart=46

were the only thing that got me to print, using PClinuxOS.  It is not a
"fix" but only a workaround.   I made a copy of everything prior to
making the required changes.

Good luck,

Frank S
