Feature changed by: Johannes Meixner (jsmeix) Feature #303400, revision 12 Title: Allow to enable the backend error handler (beh) from the YaST printer module openSUSE-11.1: Rejected by Stanislav Visnovsky (visnov) reject date: 2008-07-08 09:39:42 reject reason: Postponing. Priority Requester: Desirable openSUSE-11.2: Evaluation Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Lars Müller (lmuelle) Description: It should be possible to enable the backend error handler (beh) from the YaST printer module. This is usefull if a network printer isn't always reachable. Think of a printer switched on later than the startup of cups happens. + Discussion: + #1: Johannes Meixner (jsmeix) (2009-03-27 09:46:06) + I wonder why I am not included in such requests? + It is already implemented in the new yast printer module for openSUSE + 11.1 and accordingly also for SLE11 via the "Connection Wizard". + How to use it: + 0. Usually one would first set up the queue as usual (i.e. without + beh). + 1. In case of backend errors and when additionally the default error + handling is not what is wanted, one would first try if another CUPS + error policy helps. One can change the CUPS error policy in YaST via + "Policies". + 2. If even another CUPS error policy does not do what is wanted, one + could daisy-chain beh: Select the queue and "Edit" it. In the "Modify" + dialog select "Connection Wizard" and therein "Daisy-Chain Backend + Error Handler (beh)" usually leave the defaults for beh (or adapt them, + read the help text in YaST), klick "OK" to go back to the "Modify" + dialog. Now there is a new connection using "beh" available. Select + this new connection in the "Modify" dialog and klick "OK" to apply the + change to the queue. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/303400
