I had the same problem. Than I find out, that there are two printing systems (CUPS and LPR). CUPS is newer and actualy recomended.I had printer instaled for CUPS, but i was runing bouth systems. Some aplication printed through CUPS and some through LPR. Firefox was printing through LPR, so nothing was printed. Solution: -remove packages for LPR -install packages cupsys... and also package cupsys-bsd. Later is needed for, that cupsys understand and accepts also commands for LPR (that is why you have to remove LPR) Dexter
