[open-beos-printing] Re: beta testing for the printing kit


Too late, already clicked it. :-)  I wanted to try out
the color printing and had to add a color printer. It
didn't work of course (I read the website later) but
it didn't blow things up.  I think I tried using the
Be Printers pref with the print_server after that (or
vice versa) and of course that didn't work either.
Somewhere in there though I reinstalled the originals
for a second and then it worked.  I'm back to the OBOS
ones now though.  (OBOS Printers, and OBOS print_server)
The OBOS Printers pref looks better with my font anyway. :-)

I'll try using preview and also turning of the=20
processor in midprint.  I'll watch the server too to
try to time it at various points.  I think that if I
do that it cleans up but I'm not sure.  I'll try to
get more specific data.

Fine. And don't click on the Add new printer button in the Printers panel.

I guess this problem is caused either by BPrintJob (the OBOS version
is not implemented yet) or the printer driver :-(
If it's the first case it should be reproducable with other printer
drivers too (e.g. Preview).

What happens if one of the processors is "turned off" during printing?
