HTML image printing does not work (KDE 3.1.0)

[Stefan Hellwig]

Hi all,

I'm having a very strange problem lately when I try to print something. I'm 
using KDE 3.1.0 (release) and Qt 3.1.1, both compiled from source. My 
printing system is CUPS, version 1.1.13, also compiled from source. And it 
was working fine until I upgraded to KDE 3.1.0 release.

What I noticed is that when I try to print any HTML page containing images, 
e.g. an e-mail in KMail with an attachment icon, the page containing the 
image/icon is never printed. When I use the HTML settings in the printing 
dialog and disable "Print images" the page is printed correctly, just 
without the image(s).

I've had this problem at work and when I tried it today at home I 
discovered that I have the same problem here so I switched CUPS into debug 
mode for a better analysis of the problem. It seems that GNU Ghostscript 
runs into an unrecoverable error, starting with this message:

"Error: /rangecheck in null" [...]
"GNU Ghostscript: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1"

First I thought I should attach both log files to this e-mail (16 KB 
altogether) but then I thought it would be better to ask first. If you 
think the files could be useful please let me know.

Thank you very much in advance!

Regards, Stefan.
