[Gambas-user] Trouble printing from "Printing Example

Benoit thanks for your response. The problem is definitely related to the
print example. Other apps, such as the text editor, printed perfectly before
running print example but not after it. This defect is reproducible. Did you
find anything in the error file I sent? I have another Gambas app that
prints OK. So in my mind there is some problem with the example app.
Unfortunately I do not know where to look for a solution. Hoped that the
community would provide some guidance.
Marty

As far as I remember, GNU's restrictions for the source code and rules for
comments within the sources were too strict or badly adaptable to the Gambas
way of doing. In the end, the idea seemed to fail at this point, as nobody
was able or willing to rewrite the code to fulfill the requirements.
But I haven't read the archives yet, so it's purely taken from my memory
which has a high error rate ;)

No, it's "just" a matter of having the time of filling that:
http://www.gnu.org/help/evaluation.html
I didn't have the time since last year to deal with that...
As for gna!, according to Wikipedia, it is a fork of Savannah made by the
creators of Savannah that wanted to keep their way of managing it by
collaboration.

Ah ok, I see. I read the GNU page, and the only thing that comes to my
mind is about qt and maybe other parts which are not completely GNU
compliant (GTK+ is, right?). Would that be a problem?
On the one hand, being part of GNU seems to be a means of becoming more
popular. On the other hand, GNU is a world of its own, so it might mean
to be part of a special biotope, bound in a microcosmos, and hopefully
not a parallel universe ;) But my knowledge about these things is far
from being concise, so just take me too seriously here. I would just be
sad if one day I had to read "we cannot do this or that thing because
we're part of GNU and it's policy here...".

Good Morning,
I'm running Linux Mint 17.1 and Gambas 3.7.1. My printer is a Canon
Image-Class MF4150 connected through Samba to a PC running Windows 8. I have
installed the driver provided by Canon for Linux. Prior to running the Print
Example all worked with no problem. I was able to print a printer test page
and a file. The print queue emptied as it should.
I ran the print example in the debugger. Selected the print button to print
the file "Molly Malone". The printer dialog opened and the document was sent
to the queue. OK so far. The document never printed and it showed
"processing" in the queue. After four to five minutes the document still had
not printed. Other documents were behind waiting to be printed. Deleting
the stuck job did not release the other jobs. Rebooting did not help. No
other document, from any app, would not print. Had to delete and reinstall
the printer to get it to print again. Verified that the print example app
was at fault by printing a text file and a test page before running the app.
Attached are errors seen in the console during execution of the print
example. This is the first time I've tried to print so I'm not sure what to
do from here. I assume the app works or it would not be in the example file.
Maybe you guys can help and suggest what I can do to find the problem.
Thanks,
Marty

Priting is a bad beast in gb.gtk/gb.gtk3, so I will look at that. But
even if buggy in Gambas, I don't see how can it can stuck your printer
queue. There is another problem outside of Gambas I guess...
