Thanks! Your the first guy who sounded like he might know what I was talking about. ;-) If you are using cups and printing from the cl you can use a default options file /etc/cups/lpoptions and include any of the job options Mine has : Default EpsonC40 page-left=49 prettyprint=true page-top=36

I have downloaded a pdf file that I wish to print. It is only 8 pages long and 306k in size. I have an HP Deskjet 845C, Mandrake 8.2, using cups. I have also tried different drivers - CUPS and Gimp print, foomatic and Gimp print, and Gimp print and hpij. None have worked to print this file.

2001-03-20 Thread Praedor Tempus
I am running KDE 2.1 with cups-1.1.6, kups-1.1-4mdk, qtcups-2.1-7mdk. I have an Epson Color Stylus 600. I can startup and testprint from kups as superuser/root but if I try this as a user, kups freezes up and bogs down my whole system - kpm indicates in the neighborhood of 99% CPU usage.

Mandrake 7.2 (and all the betas) use CUPS as printing system, so you cannot use printtool for printer administration. Use kups or go to http://localhost:631/ instead. Till GrAnT GaLbRaiTh wrote: This is a multi-part message in MIME format... =_970889685-21800-531

xpp is fine. I can then print text, pdf and graphic files but anything kde (koffice kmail etc) defaults back to lpr. Trying to print say a kword doc through xpp results in an error message saying that 'the request format is not understood by this server' On Mon, 09 Oct 2000, you wrote: Try to
