Xprint is an initiative that spawned from the Mozilla project. It's basically a translator that converts the X protocol to Postscript. Also, it's pretty telling that the version in Debian is 0.1.0.alpha1-10, with no corresponding release being offered by the project itself. It might get better with a transition to X.org which Xprint seems to have become a part of. -- Got Backup? Jabber: Shadowdancer at jabber.fsinf.de
