If that works in other Mozilla-based browsers, then thanks for the
workaround!
A quick search through the BTS shows these:
Package: galeon
256945
Only xprint was available in mozilla due to alleged security
flaw (fixed).
226574
Xprint printing wasn't supported in Galeon (fixed).
Package: epiphany-browser
226614
Xprint printing isn't supported by Epiphany. Upstream will fix
it in the future (?).
219023
Epiphany doesn't support the CUPS printing dialog -- if I
understand this correctly, it means that you cannot set most
options otherwise available. Upstream will fix it in the future
(?).
Package: mozilla-firefox
226597
Xprint printing isn't supported by Firefox. Marked as wontfix,
no information about upstream position -- assume it goes hand in
hand with Mozilla.
257761
A request to re-enable PS printing -- the equivalent of 265945
but perhaps the maintainer thinks the security flaw is real?
If I add these up, it seems to mean that the workaround will work in
Mozilla and Galeon but not in Epiphany and Firefox.
