Printing on Linux

[hsvandrew 23]

Just wondering if anyone has gotten printing to work from Delphi (FMX, FMXLINUX) with recent Delphi versions i.e. 12.3 and recent Linux builds i.e. Ubuntu 24.

For example, on both Ubuntu 24 & Amazon Linux 2023 I used Gnome settings UI to install a printer.

Under the lpq command the printer shows. Printing works in other Gnome apps i.e. Text Editor - the device is shown.

In Delphi (12.3), the printer list only contains an entry called '.pdf'

If I use a PrintDialog/PrintSetupDialog, the app crashes

 

When I use Lazarus, which is free, all of the above work perfectly.
