I’m unable to print web pages from the Epiphany (aka Web) browser. When I try to print I get a “Printer not found” message . When I try to print to file, I get “Error opening file…No such file or directory.”
Printing works fine with Firefox. I’m running Gnome 3.38.4 on opensuse tumbleweed.
That works, thank you. Now epiphany can print to file and print to the printer. Is there any way to disable sandbox so that epiphany can be launched with the workaround without using the command line?
BTW, I really like using Epiphany. It has become my day-to-day browser. Beautiful interface, and nice gesture navigation.
Thanks–I should have looked at that page more carefully. I edited /usr/share/applications/org.gnome.Epiphany.desktop and added the following line, as suggested:
Exec= env WEBKIT_FORCE_SANDBOX=0 epiphany %U
(I also commented out the existing Exec= line)
Now printing works in Epiphany without having to use the command line workaround.
One last quick question: Is there any drawback to leaving sandbox disabled?
Thanks for the link to that interesting blog. Now I’m thinking that I should revert to Epiphany’s default settings and use Firefox (or the command-line workaround) when I need to print.
