comms/qfaxreader - printer recognition issue



Good day list;

Upgraded from 6.2 to 7.0 via clean install from CDs, then to 7.1 via binary update. After upgrading to 7.0 I rebuilt and install all the same ports using the same makefile except that the perl entries are updated. This port built and install beautifully except it no longer recognizes my printer, which it used to do on 6.2. Cups is set as the printing system for xfce in the xfce "Printing & System Settings" dialogue. This was set prior to installing the comms/qfaxreader port. The print dialogue in comms/qfaxreader is greyed out not allowing the selection of a printer. Any ideas or help welcomed.

Cheers, Tom

...and everything else prints fine, xpdf, Mousepad (gui test editor), Opera (native), and files from the command line using lp (cups version).
