Re: Wipe free space [Solved]


Not ootb but can be installed either with cli or MXPI.

However the one in the repo may be a bit older. You can (as I always do with new releases) right-click on the downloaded deb file: "Install Deb Files".:

Wipe free space [Solved]

I just wrote “test” on a LibreWriter doc and tried to print it. I’ll install Ghostscript too now.
