[moneydance] "No print service found."

[Doug B]

Well, java 1.6.0.05 doesn't print for me.  Now what version of java would you 
suggest MD ship with so it works for both of us?

There are a lot of linux ND users and actually few printing complaints.  If it 
were simply the java version, I would expect much more noise.

I'm no linux expert, I've only been using it 8 years or so.  Printing with 
java seems to require a version of java, ghostscript, cups, and who knows 
what else that 'play nice' together.  Some seem to have that and some don't.  
The only java version I have that seems to work right now is 1.4.2.17.  Every 
time a new version of java, cups, or ghostscript comes out for my distro of 
choice, I point MD to my system defaults to see if it works.  It's been 
roughly a year since that worked for me.

When you find that MD doesn't print, I think you will find that no java 
program will print.  If I'm going to start pointing at folks, I'm going to 
look to Sun and java first.  It should 'just work' as far as printing is 
concerned.
