Version: (using KDE KDE 3.2.1) Installed from: Compiled From Sources Compiler: gcc 3.2 OS: Linux It doesn't seem like the Printer Manager is looking into /etc/lprng although the lprng man states this as the config dir. Copying /etc/lprng/printcap to /etc/printcap does the job but is not what should be needed.
I'm not using LPRng, so it's possible that the corresponding plugin is not in sync with up-to-date LPRng version. What's the plugin is currently doing is: - check /etc/printcap - in case of LPRng, check /etc/lpd.conf and look for the "printcap_path" entry Does that mean that with recent LPRng, everything has been moved to /etc/lprng (printcap and lpd.conf)?
I guess yes - everything is under /etc/lprng/ This is what the manpage of lprng says: The files used by LPRng are set by values in the printer configuration file. The following are a commonly used set of default values. /etc/lprng/lpd.conf LPRng configuration file ${HOME}/.printcap user printer description fil e /etc/lprng/printcap printer description file /etc/lprng/lpd.perms permissions
UNCONFIRMED (batch reassigning messed this)
