Damn, i'll need to rebuild firefox :)

I can't. See that:

[console]
tux@slitaz:~$ ls -l /dev/lp*
ls: /dev/lp*: No such file or directory
[/console]

I'm pretty sure it isn't a good thing.

Well, i tested cups-pdf printing a doc file from OpenOffice and it
worked fine, no truncated parts. Rebuild firefox to get it printing
it's not a good option for me (it's a pain in the ass to cook large
packages on my duron 1200), so i'll see if it's an issue related to
Opera, or try some command line options to gs when printing from
opera.

Hugs man :)
