comms/qfaxreader - printer recognition issue

Good day list;

Upgraded from 6.2 to 7.0 via clean install from CDs, then to 7.1 via  
binary update. After upgrading to 7.0 I rebuilt and install all the  
same ports using the same makefile except that the perl entries are  
updated. This port built and install beautifully except it no longer  
recognizes my printer, which it used to do on 6.2. Cups is set as the  
printing system for xfce in the xfce "Printing & System Settings"  
dialogue. This was set prior to installing the comms/qfaxreader port.  
The print dialogue in comms/qfaxreader is greyed out not allowing the  
selection of a printer. Any ideas or help welcomed.

Cheers, Tom

...and everything else prints fine, xpdf, Mousepad (gui test editor),  
Opera (native), and files from the command line using lp (cups version).
