Hello,
I try to figure out why my print function in Chromium is not working. When I use CTRL-p to print, Chromium crashes and becomes unresponsive.
However, there is nothing relevant in the shell output:
[orschiro@thinkpad ~]$ chromium

Did anyone have the same problem?

I can confirm above.
I know it's not an answer to your question, but firefox is unaffected.
If I'm curt with you it's because time is a factor. I think fast, I talk fast and I need you guys to act fast if you wanna get out of this. So, pretty please... with sugar on top. Clean the [censored] car. -The Wolf

Thanks guys.
So, Firefox does not rely on CUPS to print PDFs?
No idea, I do not own a printer, therefore no CUPS.
The only reason I use the print function is for "print to file" of cinema tickets purchased online.
As detailed above, if I try to do this in chrome it causes application freeze, but no problem at all with firefox.
(as explained previously, I have obviously not offered this as a "solution", merely a temporary alternative)

I have just re-read my last post & realized that it sounds very ,very defensive.
I was only trying to clarify & no offense meant.

I filed a bug report in the Chromium tracker: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issu … ?id=178235
I am curious to know what the developers say on this CUPS dependency.

There are already bug reports about this issue upstream.
GTK+ bug report: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=686838
Chromium issue: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issue … ?id=160574
Firefox handles printing through GTK+ as well, but calls gtk_enumerate_printers() in a separate thread (or something to that effect) and, therefore, doesn't freeze.

So it can indeed be considered a bug in Chromium.
I wouldn't consider it a Chromium bug; the actual bug is in GTK+.
Firefox is just fortunate enough not to be affected by it in any significant way.
