Users currently cannot print from Matlab (either figures or from the
desktop) on Sun workstations only. When the print dialogue opens, the
printer is listed as "Status: Not accepting jobs." This has been verified
with multiple accounts on Sun workstations in m38, E51, and N42. We've
also verified that printing from Matlab works correctly from Athena linux
machines.
Discussion on -c consult yesterday indicated that the culprit is most
likely a change in Matlab's java printing. I'm sending the zlogs to alexp
under separate cover, since /mit/zlogs/consult isn't world-readable from a
web browser.
As I expect you've heard, this was fixed in the 9.4.26 patch release.
