Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.5) Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages Reported in Debian BTS at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=412750 I changed my default printer in Control Center > Peripherals > Printers But, it didn't change the default printer of the lp command. That is, when I printed things like $ lp mydoc.ps the job was still sent to a different printer. So, I had to change the default printer for the lp command by, say, $ lpoptions -d hp2700 (This command modifies ~/.cups/lpoptions .) Oh, and I use CUPS.
Olivier, can you please check if this is a duplicate of bug 143225 ?
Hi, Its seems to be related. I will ask the original submitter to test thanks, Olivier 28 Mar 2007 21:58:06 -0000, Kurt Pfeifle <pfeifle@kde.org>: [bugs.kde.org quoted mail]
answer from submitter: Um, I don't think this is the same problem. My point was that the default printer of KDE should always be the same as the default printer of CUPS. That is, if you change the default printer in the KDE control panel, the contents of ~/.cups/lpoptions should also change automatically. Regards, Ryo
