Even under fresh installs of Ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04, the PureBasic Printer.pb example does not work properly.

Tried PureBasic 6.00 as well, on different computers, with identical results. Only the top-left part of the 'image' gets printed in huge size, compared to the same program running under Windows. Trying the PureBasic printer example, the same thing happened there as well. For some odd reason, the very same thing happened there. So I tried this version with the old source code. I noticed the Linux printer lib changed to GtkPrint instead of GnomePrint in PureBasic 5.40. Wine is not ideal, so lately I have been playing with different Ubuntu installs, but they all gave the same results on the old binaries. The user 'solved' this problem by using a version compiled for Windows, executed in Ubuntu using Wine Different printers, or even printing to PDF or SVG all gave the same results. The error: Only the top-left of the image was printed in huge size on the printer. Which year, or which version of Ubuntu I cannot remember. This program worked for several years under Ubuntu, then the printing failed to work properly. The latest version was compiled with PureBasic 4.10, about 15 years ago already I made a small invoicing application for Linux in a long time ago, where printing the invoices are one of the major functions.
