Hi, You can add an "special button" in the systray (i'm using KDE as my current desktop) called "printing system" or so (sorry, i've got the spanish KDE localized version and i don't know exactly how it's called in english). By clicking in one of the little up-arrows in the KDE "task menu", select pannel menu > add > special button > printing system. A menu-button (button that expands a menu) with a printer in it will be placed in the kde bar, and you can easily administrate your printer jobs clicking in the menu entry with your printer name --and even configure it through "preferences" or "printing administration".
You can also start the printer jobs administrator by typing kjobviewer in the console. You can access, as derek says, to a web browser interface using the URI he posted. But using Konqueror -and only Konqueror- just type print:/ to access to different printer related services, or print:/jobs to see your printer jobs status, although you're using LDP instead of CUPS. Personally, I don't like web interfaces very much -- it's slower (Sorry for my bad english... :">) El sáb, 28 de 06 de 2003 a las 14:34, Derek Jennings escribió: > I should have also mentioned that you can view print jobs using any browser on > your local network with the CUPS administration tool simply by entering > http://localhost:631 (replace localhost with IP address if using a different > computer) > > On previous versions of Mandrake I was able to cancel jobs using the CUPS > admin tool, but for some reason I cannot with 9.1 YMMV > > derek > > On Sunday 29 Jun 2003 4:10 am, Chris Knewstubb wrote: > > Hi All, > > > > I am using Mandarke 9.1.
