In everything you've posted below, you've carefully avoided telling us what print system KDE is useing...!!! Control center / Peripherals / Printers and check Print System Currently Used... On Sunday 07 September 2003 17:21, Harry Wert wrote:
I am running a SuSE8.2 system with kde3.1.2 and here is my problem: ALL applications other than KDE apps print correctly using the CUPS system. No KDE applications print to the printer. My workaround is when I wish to print from a kde app I print to a file, instead of a printer listed in the printer que, then execute a script which does a lpr ~/print.ps. This causes the printer to print out the kde application correctly.
Printing from kde has not worked since upgrading my OS to SuSE8.2 from 8.1 about four months ago. Searching the archives I found a reference stating this problem had been fixed with kde3.1.2 so I upgraded kde from 3.1.1 to 3.1.2, but still have the same problem. All gnome apps print correctly via cups FWIW. Can anyone point me in the right direction as I would like to get this problem resolved? Thank you in advance for any help or suggestions.
Just a side note, when I was using SuSE 8.1 I used the Lpring printing system which printed properly. The present problem occurred when I upgraded to SuSE 8.2 which installed the cups printing system.
I posted this problem on the KDE mailing list but received zero response. Surely I am not alone with this problem.
