I should say that I have attempted to invoke the printer admin option by
./spadmin in my home directory, and when that failed, in the
I was always configuring my cups through the web interface. Once a
printer is configured there as default, usually it appears automatically
in the OO as a default printer. Try issuing in your browser:
http://localhost:631/admin
/usr/share/oo /etc/oo and /usr/lib/oo directories as well. I have done
this both as normal user and as sudo. To each attempt, the response is
the same: No such file or directory.
Beyond this the OOo help is of no help, so I am really hoping that
someone here has an answer. I have a large document that I need to print
out so I am feeling a little crazy about this.
Any tips/ideas please?
TIA
Andy

Yes, the printer is configured fine - I did do it via CUPS (using a
browser) and all other apps can see it because it is set as the default.
OOo however does not register it (only recognises a "generic" printer
which is not the same one even though I only have one printer on my
system) and I am unable to invoke ./spadmin to reset the OOo
configuration to recognise my Epson printer.
