[Inkscape-user] Printing fails with error message printed to paper.

Hello,

as my printer works in all other applications, I don't really thing, that the problem is in my printer setup or the printer driver.

If I try to print from Inkscape (0.48), then anything, I get, is a paper with this line on it:

**** Unable to open the initial device, quitting.

I tried with GIMP (seems to have the same printing dialog) and there printing works well.

To get something printed from Inkscape, I have to print to PDF first, then open this PDF in okular and print it from there to my printer. Pretty silly workaround. Would be nice if someone could help me to resolve this issue...

Yours

Manuel
