[csw-users] evince doesn't print?

I remember I used to be the one who thought I was crazy cause Evince 
wouldn't print. That about two years ago though and it wasn't the fault 
of Evince but one of it's dependencies. Back then though Evince would 
crash when you would try to print.

That probably got addressed over a year ago now though. Been using 
Evince for awhile now with no problems.

One thing that came to mind is we use Cups for the printing. If you're 
using the default Solaris printing then you might have a problem.
I don't know though. It just seems like a possible reason to me. I don't 
claim to know anything about the inner workings of Evince.

I know when I got to print in Evince it shows all the printers I have in 
my Cups server.

We used to use the Cups that came on the Solaris Companion CD and used 
the instructions on this page to install it and get it running.

Since then we have updated to the CSW version of Cups and pretty much 
followed those instructions but with /opt/csw paths instead of /opt/sfw 
paths.
