I hate it when I do that...

Spent all morning, some of the afternoon, and a couple of hours this evening trying to figure out why my inkjet printer wasn't printing. The fact that xpdf also wasn't working suggested that the problem was a missing font, but after I installed a batch of fonts, changed the fonts on the labels, re-installed the drivers, and rebooted a couple of times I began to get suspicious. And then there was the fact that it wasn't printing a test page, which clearly didn't depend on what secondary fonts were installed.

Turned out the root filesystem was full. Including /tmp, of course. A simple apt-get clean got back 2.1GB. Dumb bear.

I have shipping labels now.

thanks for the reminder; I think I got back a couple hundred meg myself.
