Re: [newbie] Print manager

Hi all,

My desires are meet. Thanks to all who replied. Actually, you could have 
said why don't you look through the menus, bozzo. - I wouldn't have 
been offended, honestly. I am totally new to Linux, and I am amazed at 
the stuff I have just found while following the advice to find the print 
manager.

I'm off to have a real look,

Cheers,
Chris K.

If you are using KDE you can use kjobviewer

You can access it from your KDE ControlCentrePeripheralsPrintersJobs

Alternatively use menudrake to add a menu entry for it so you can access it 
directly.

If you use Gnome or some other Window Manager then install the printman RPM 
and use the gnome-print-manager to monitor your jobs.

[newbie] Printer problem

2003-06-26 Per discussione Chris Knewstubb
I'm using Mandrake 9.1 with KDE 3.1.

Printer is an Epson Stylus Color 400.

Using OpenOffice 1.0.2.

Printed for the very first time in Linux. Set off the print job, and the 
printer immediately started to print a load of rubbish - symbols , blamk 
pages . And it won't stop - except when I push the off button. If I 
turn it back on it just starts of again. I have tried every thing to 
stop it. Closed OpenOffice. Shut down and restarted - when I restart the 
printing begins at the login screen.

I have gone into Windows in between Linux sessions and the printer is 
fine there.

Is there a cure to this?

Help.

Please.

Cheers,
Chris K
