Version: 0.6.80 (using 4.00.80 (KDE 4.0.80 >= (KDE 4.1 Beta1), Debian packages) Compiler: cc OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.25-2-amd64 I tried to print an doc file from Okular, but the printer does not start printing. I then I visit http://localhost:631/jobs and can see that cup has not resived the job (it is empty)
Which Qt version are you using?
Since I am running kde 4.0.80 I think (not sure) it must be QT 4.4. Does it make a different?
Uhm.. is the print dialog listing correctly your printer(s)? I mean, check that for each printer its type and description really are relative to them, and not "print to local file".
The dialog is showing the printer correctly. I dont know if it is a cupsys bug or KDE bug so if noone can reproduce it it must be an error on cups or my persenel settings
I have the same problem, when trying to print a pdf. The problem in this case is indeed, that it tells me "Address: local file". But how can I change this? In the printer-properties I can only change the page-layout.
@comment #5: your problem is bug #162793, reported to us but really a Qt bug.
Hello Jonas, do you still have this problem, even with a more recent version of Qt or Okular?
I have re-tested today an it seems that the problem has gone
fedora 9 here with kde 4.1, printing doesn't work. konqueror prints just fine.
qt-4.4.0-16.fc9.x86_64
@Juha: > "printing doesn't work." there are already bugs opened about "non working" printing; if you could explain better what "does not work" means for you, we can see what is the right bug.
I'm experiencing the same problem (shows printer selected, says local file). This is, however, not just Okular, but any KDE printing dialog. The bigger problem is that you cannot even print PDF files, because then you cannot change it back and forward. I'll attach a small video to demonstrate (2,5MB).
Oops, too big file. Here we go: http://www.parena.net/temp/bugs.kde.org-163117-printingdialog.avi Excuse the Nvidia beta driver choppyness. This is KDE 4.1.1 (openSUSE Factory), but this has been a problem longer. So, we need kpdf for printing PDF's. :/
@Paul van Erk (comment #13 and #14): your problem is not this one, but bug #162793.
Hadn't found it, thanks. Hopefully openSUSE Factory will start using Qt-4.4.1 soon. :/
I'm not sure what is left to do on this bug. Are we still waiting for Juha to explain "printing doesn't work"?
I think it should be closed, as the bug was in QT, not KDE, and it has been fixed in 4.4.1.
Hey, yes, it has started to print again. Thanks!
WORKSFORME, and WORKSFORJUHA.
