CUPS printing on Linux

Samuel Mathew — Thu, 17 Jul 2003 18:38:25 GMT

I am relatively less knowledgeable about LInux. I am using one now. Red Hat 8.0.
The CUPS software is so different. I can add a printer. I cannot delete a job that I sent there or can I do a test print. Where I do take full control of this CUPS. Is there a quick solution. I really don't have the time to go through all the documentation. SOme help would be very welcome
Thanks in advance

You can also access it by redhat menu / system parameters /printing...

You can delete jobs and do test prints...

Hi,

what about the web interface normally under http://localhost:631/ or http://:631/?

BTW. the last one is disabled by default.

This didn't help. I have a version of Red hat that is adopted by cpubuilders.com. The CUPS menu that all of you mentioned tells me as soon as I try to do a test print that I don't have permission to it. I am logged in as root. Somewhere there is a default permission problem is there. I have no idea.
There must be either a menu for config other than the main menu for CUPS...
Hope there will be some help available

Thanks in advance
