Hi Octave family,
I feel rather embarrassed, but I have been unable to print a figure as a png despite several searches on help forums.
The commands I am using are as follows:
print('graph.png','-dpng')
And I get the following error:
octave:13> print('graph1','-dpng')
gnuplot> set terminal png enhanced size 1200,900

This error also applies to attempting to print as a jpeg, but not as an eps... Perhaps because it doesn't have to convert the file?
Searching google for the first two lines of the error message gives results reporting problems related to a multitude of plotting functionalities in multiple versions of Octave on different operating systems. Is there something simple I can correct to print a png (running Octave 3.2.2 and Ubuntu)?
Thank you in advance for your help. I'd appreciate any advice.
