Cannot print: OS X and Oxygen 7.2

Post by rrliu »

I am running Oxygen 7.2 on an Apple PowerBook G4 1.67GHz 2GB RAM OS X 10.4.6. I cannot convince Oxygen to print anything. The first dialog appears -- apparently the Page Setup dialog --, I choose the printer and the paper size, dismiss the dialog, and it is replaced by another, the "normal" print dialog. Curiously, the printer that I selected in the first dialog must often be selected again in the second. Regardless of what I elect to do in the second dialog, i.e., PDF, Preview or Print, the dialog only disappears. Here is some information that might help you:

Hello,

It can be a problem of the printer driver. Please make sure you have the latest version of the driver for your printer. Also contact us at support at oxygenxml dot com for giving you a sample application for testing that printing works in the Java virtual machine used to run <oXygen/> with your driver.

Regards,
Sorin

Hello Richard,

Thank you for contacting us and helping us to debug the problem. We fixed it and a patch is available here. Just replace [oXygen-install-folder]/lib/oxygen.jar with the patched jar file and restart <oXygen/>.

Regards,
Sorin

Hi Sorin,

I was having this exact same problem of no printing on both my Macs (PowerBook G4 and Intel iMac) running OS 10.4.7.

This patched version of oxygen.jar fixed the problem for me as well.

Thanks.

John :D
