Kmail (with attachment) print error

Fri Sep 30, 2011 11:23 am
Running openSuSE 11.3 with several LTSP Thin Clients, plus 3 Workstations running openSuSE 11.4. ALL User profiles are stored in the main 11.3 LTSP PC.

I have a problem with Workstations when attempting to print a Kmail e-mail that contains an attachment. The resulting printed document ONLY shows the attachment's logo (eg pdf logo), nothing else - ie. NO TEXT. If I log in to same account, but using Thin Client terminal, the same document prints perfectly OK. All other KMail functionality is fine.

I note that KDE and KMail versions do differ:
Workstations: KDE 4.6.0, Release 6; KMail version 1.13.6
Thin Clients: KDE 4.4.4, Release 3; KMail version 1.13.5

Does anyone have ideas why I have this document print error?

Update:

I now see that this problem can be avoided by modifying the print options prior to printing the document. If I de-select the 'HTML Settings> Print Images', then all text prints properly. But I have to do this every time I want to print a KMail document with attachments, which is not ideal!
