Good afternoon,
My PC's OS is windows 7prof.-64bit (where LO 4.3.4.1)
My intention is to (again try to) convert to Linux and shall now install Ubuntu (vers. 14.04.1 ready on a DVD) in a virtualbox and use that for creating database applications with SQLite(3) (& Apache & PHP) and expect
having LO/Base as a front end.

Am I to understand from this thread that I am getting printing problems with
Linux in such an installation?

If so, what version of Ubuntu is then safe and reliable?
My printer is a KonicaMinolta magicolor 1600w.
Grateful for any advice
Pertti Rönnberg

Hi :)
I almost always have at least 4 partitions;  1 for swap, 1 for /home
or just to put my data on and 2 to have different distros or different
versions of the same distro on.  On some machines i multi-boot between
half a dozen different versions of Ubuntu (but always intend to clean
it up down to just 2 or 3).
Regards from
Tom :)

Yes, I agree with you, BUT. . .
When I upgrade to a newer version of Ubuntu via the Update Manager system, I
get a message about CUPS being depreciated and no longer used.  So it is
Removed from the upgraded system.  That is when I have to reinstall it,
along with my CUPS-PDF package.  Of course that package gives the
depreciated message as well, but I know of no other PDF file printer for
Ubuntu either.

CUPS still seems to be alive and well; in fact, I'm not sure how we could
get along without it.

It is listed in the Ubuntu repository, although has always been installed
by
default on any installation I've done (admittedly, not a whole lot
though).
If you use the Software Center, make sure to check any other additions you
might require (I have everything but OpenPrinting installed).

If you need to install it separately, you can download it from
http://www.cups.org/software.php.

I hope this helps ...

Frank
