Version: (using KDE KDE 3.1KDE 3.0.3) Installed from: RedHat RPMsRedHat RPMs OS: Linux When I print a message, the header information is largely lost. I use Long Headers which displays the subject, date, from and to in the message window. When I select print, I end up with only the from and to lines at the top of the page, losing both the subject and date etc along the way.
Subject: Re: New: First two lines of message header cut off when printing I can't reproduce your problem. Does printing from Konqueror work? Does printing to a file work? Are the first two lines visible in the preview? I suspect that the upper margin for your printer isn't set up correctly and that the first two lines are therefore cut off.
I also see the top of mails cut off when printing (SuSE 8.1 using KDE 3.1.1). This has been a problem for me since 3.0.3. I don't know if this is necessarily a KMail problem or a KParts problem because it happens in KWord and KWrite also. It's not CUPS or my printer because it happens on a wide varity of printers that I have access to (QMS, HP and Lexmark) and other apps print fine out of KPrinter.
We are simply using KHTMLView::print() to print messages with KMail. So the problem is either in KHTMLView or at a lower level but not in KMail. Since the original submitter of this bug report didn't bother to answer my simple questions feel free to close this bug report.
he still didn't - bad for him..

Printing from Konquerer does not work properly either. I have just received an error message, but when I printed that page it did not say ERROR. Printing started with the line reading The requested URL could not be retrieved. In preview mode the full page view was visible. Hope this helps. Cheers dme
if it's in the print preview, then the PS generation should be fairly correct and only the printing itself is broken.
I remember that KDEPrint had previously a bug in page size / margins computation that could produce that problem. Basically, it computed a page size larger than what it should be, so you can view it in the preview, but it is clipped when printed. This error have been fixed when I noticed it, so the problem should have been disappeared. Is this the case now?
The bug reporter told me it has disappeared. Closing the bug.
