Description Kurt Pfeifle 2005-01-28 16:22:00 UTC
Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
OS:                Linux

Here is a (incomplete) list of CUPS print job options (introduced in more recent versions) which are not yet supported by the kprinter GUI, with examples for values to use:


[These options are currently not even supported by means of the "Additonal Tags" tab widget, since options added there get prefixed with a "KDEPrint-" string, while CUPS filters expect them without that prefix.]


 +------------------+--------------+ 
 | number-up        |       6|9|16 | # 16 pages on 1 sheet 
 +------------------+--------------+ 
 | number-up-layout | [btrl| +more | # fr. bottom to top, fr. right to left 
 +------------------+--------------+ 
 | mirror           | true         | # print output mirrored 
 +------------------+--------------+ 
 | page-border      | double-thick | # draw two 1pt borders around each page 
 +------------------+--------------+ 
 | raw              | true         | # print raw (override all other options) 
 +------------------+--------------+ 
 


This wishlist/bug item is meant as a reminder for post-3.4 work on KDEPrint. It may not be complete. It is just what I can think of now without chacking the CUPS documentation.

See also bug 139660 (I don't declare duplicate right now in order to see if calls for a JJ: developer will find response)
Comment 3 John Layt 2009-01-02 18:21:10 UTC
KDEPrint in KDE3 is unmaintained and will have no more new features
implemented.  This request will never be implemented in KDEPrint as a result.  

All these options except raw are directly supported in KDE4 via the print dialog.  The raw option can be passed using the advanced options.

Closing.
