Xprint will be back in the next revision of firefox. It was switched off temporarily while the Xprint packages were being prepared for the new modular X11R7. Please be aware that TrueType fonts are currently not detected in the latest system. They are expected to be restored later this month when X11R7.1 is released. > It seems quite ridiculous that Xprint only allows one resolution for > all printers. Separated settings can be set up by hand in the Xprint config files, but you're right it is in principle a nuisance. I have hopes of developing a more aware Xprint in the future, but that's dependent on the development of the OpenPrinting libraries, which are still alpha and new.
