I thought of a possible reason for this problem.  I installed Maple11 on my user account, not systemwide.  I really don't want to have to install it systemwide because I don't know if I have enough space left on the / partition to install it.

Are any of you able to print with Maple installed in your home directory in Linux?

I tried it again after starting xmaple from the command line and I get this interesting line when I try to print:

#16 /home/pollywog/maple11/jre.IBM_INTEL_LINUX/lib/i386/libjava.so(Java_java_security_AccessController_doPrivileged__Ljava_security_PrivilegedAction_2+0x3d) [0xb758d2cd]
#17 [0xb2a7b41b]
#18 [0xb2a759a4]
#19 [0xb2a73157]

I have the same problem and the libcups symlink mentioned in one post is present.  I followed the advice to make a client.conf file and put in the ServerName as localhost but that did not work, though I am no longer getting the error I was seeing before from Maple about not finding the print service.  The printer just doesn't print.


Maple12 comes out soon but I don't expect a fix there since this problem appears to have something to do with JAVA not Maple.
