Drama printing from a graphics window using R 1.9.0 patched, ess 5.2.2, and WinXP...

[Liaw, Andy]

I have:

XPPro
official R-1.9.1 binary from CRAN
XEmacs 21.4.3 (native)
ESS (xemacs package version 1.07)

When I plot something, and then use the File / Print menu of the graphic
device, I get:

> plot(1:10)
> Unable to choose printer

in the R process buffer.

Best,
Andy
