File-Print calls up the print dialog, but nothing gets printed when the Print button is clicked. I have printers4lazide installed and also tried removing and reinstalling it without luck.

No errors at print time are reported when Lazarus is started by the command line.

I installed Lazarus 1.4.4 in a 32bit Virtualbox and printing works fine there which so far points me to this being a 64 bit problem.

Is there something I can do to fix/test this out further on the 64 bit installation?

Thanks!

Resolved:
my ~/tmp directory was not writeable (owned by root) and only the sample project rawmodetest showed the error. Changing ownership of that directory resolved the problem.

Thanks for the hint.

It now gives an error message in that case.
