Description of problem: if you want to print a page with firefox (or an email with thunderbird): click on files > print (or type Ctrl + P on the keyboard) a window then opens on which you can select a printer (if several) and the setups (6 tabs: general, page formatting, options, tasks, image quality, color), and then click on the "print" button: nothing happens. for exmple, I wish to print the present page (bugzilla-enter a bug), the result is: [alain4@magaux ~]$ lpq Officejet_Pro_8000_A809 is ready Rank Owner Job File(s) Total Size 1st alain4 1020 Enter A Bug 78848 bytes but the printer doesn't print this very useful feature works very well with mageia5 this bug is perhaps related to bug #21381 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
with mageia5 it's even possible to print pages directly from the browser Opera which is not part of mageia; this shows that the problem doesn't come from thunderbird or firefox but once more from cups my advise: continue to support mageia5 until everything was OK with mga6 and make mageia a rolling release distrib
