Hi
I have scribus v1.4.1installed on Ubuntu 12.04. My printer is an Epson Stylus Photo RX620. When I try to print anything from Scribus, the printer carriage moves and the paper is pulled in a few inches, then it stops completely. If I check the printer status, the document is up there, with the message 'printing stopped' - which I know already, but why? The printer remains hanging with 'processing' flashing on the display, but it's clearly had a stroke and gone into a coma. Any advice would be much appreciated. :(
I've just discovered the solution. Check the 'alternative printing command box' and paste this into it - lp -dname-of-your-printer.
hi debroos
this may work for you – but scribus doesn't print direct on every system.
if someone else isn't as lucky with his system, the solution is to print from a .pdf file.
