Description David Rankin 2009-07-22 01:16:49 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.96)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

In konqueror, there is no "Print" option in the right-click context menu for any file type. 

There should be a print option for all file types except for non-image binary files. At the very least, there should be  Print options for all image types and all text and word-processing, spread sheet and presentation (office) documents with support for drawing documents as well.

For first time linux users (and for seasoned users as well) this will be an immediately apparent shortcoming of the kde4 desktop.

Image print should default to gwenview print options.

Text should default to kate printing.

Office document printing should default to the package creating the document (i.e. openOffice or koffice, or scribus, kyle, etc.) 

Drawings should likewise default to the creating package (i.e. Gimp, karbon14, inkscape, stencil, etc..)

Since kde4 konqueror is built on dolphin, this would also fix the shortcoming in dolphin.
