A small update. I have tried installing the same Abiword package on another system - also running 5.3R, but with Gnome installed. On that system printing works fine - both with the original "lpr" print-command and with "lpr -Plp". Does the Abiword package "behave" differently when Gnome is installed? Best regards, Mikkel C.
