I understood but maybe I was too brief with my reply.  Yes I can print 
from all the apps you mentioned.  I intended sending the original 
message to the jEdit users list but made a mistake and sent it here. 
When I noticed the message show up here I didn't know if I could cancel 
it so I just hoped a jEdit/Ubuntu user may see it and have some insight 
into my problem.

Regards,  Jim
