Comment 11 for bug 86970

Very strange I experienced the same bug in some Java applications with jdk 1.5 or 1.6 where printing facilities cannot be accessed ; the way to solve the problem is to set a printer from the list of printers available in CUPS as "default locally" (translated into English from French display which might be "default under system") ; mind you it is not the option set as "default for user" that can be applied to another printer from the list of printers available in CUPS ; then after doing so it works ; now the question is why the first printer set in CUPS is not automatically set as "default locally" as my system at one point did not have any set and once you have one set you can unset this option only by moving it to another printer but not way to globally remove it ?

All other fixes propose by othet people do not work.

Regards.
