no print service found - printing from Groupwise 7 Client

Hi all,

I'm running openSUSE 10.2 and the Groupwise 7.0.2 client

I cannot print from the Groupwise client. From the File / Print menu there
is no printer listed. When I click the properties button I get a "no print
service found" error.

All the other apps I've tried to print from work fine (openoffice, firefox)

I read a vague post via a google hit that leads me to believe it's an issue
printing from java applications.

Has anyone seen this and/or know how to fix it?

Thanks,

If you add:

export CUPS_SERVER=localhost

to the groupwise startup file it corrects the problem. The line should be
placed above the line that starts the client.

This is sort-of documented in bug #213362 on https://bugzilla.novell.com
