Version: (using KDE 3.5.9) Since kjobviewer is a utility application it would be useful if on KDE start (via autostart or SM) it would hide in the systray, not shown as full-sized window.
I confirm the need for this feature. I tried to see how to hide the KMJobViewer with view->hide(); but I didn't succeed. It seems that show is called anyway.
KDEPrint in KDE3 is unmaintained and will have no more new features implemented. This request will never be implemented in KDEPrint as a result. In KDE4 kjobviewer has been replaced by printer-applet which uses system-config-printer as a backend. printer-applet always starts minimised. Closing.
