amdonati : 28/11/01 10:31 AM : Incident created -   I have installed on my MDK 8.1 a printer connected through IPP using cups. cups sees the printer and the test worked well. B ut when I try to print from a KDE application (I tried Kspread), the application sees the printer but nothing comes out. I tried to reinstall the printer, to change authentication (I gave, anonymous access, my user access or Root, no change) but nothing comes out. After the first test, even the print test fails. And if I try to print from a program from the gnome suite (I tried Gnumeric, Abiword and Gimp), they do not even see the cups printer! And I fI am not able to print, I cannot work from linux! So my questions are: 1) Why after installation I cannot print from a IPP printer correctly installed? 2) why GTK programs like Gnumeric, Abiword and Gimp do not see CUPS printers? Thank you very much for the help! Adalberto

MandrakeSoft : 28/11/01 11:21 AM : Reply received -   Hello, This could be caused by a cups service which is not running properly in the linux services. Have a look at it in your mandrake control center in the services section. The overall cups setup can be sdone in a graphical way with the normal browser filling in the following address: localhost:631 Configure again the printer and start up the service.
