Before you boot into Linux make sure all the printers are connected properly and on.

Within the Gnome environment do the following:
Select the YDL symbol then look for System Settings, and select Printing. A dialog box will appear asking you to enter your root password (if your Linux was set up well there should be a password for root which is different from any password assigned to any user -- even if you are the only user.).

After the above has been completed the Printer Configuration interface appears. You will note various tabs which you can open and see what settings need to be changed or refined so that you can make the appropriate settings. If you select the tab Queue type, you will notice a pop-up. Click upon that pop-up which initially appears as local .... something or other, and you'll find other selections enabling to configure any networked printers according to their respective networking parameters/requirements.

That should be it.

Good luck...

Hi,

I'm having a heck of a time getting printing set up in YDL (4.0.1). I'm not really new to CUPS, since it's been a part of OS X for a while now, and I've been using the Gimp-Print package for OS X for a long time. However, I can't
seem to get my Epson printer to work in YDL.

My Epson 1520 has a network card installed, and I have all the IP address information, etc. I know in OS X I had to set the queue to lp to get it to
work, but I can't find the same settings in YDL.

Any ideas?
