cups under mozilla
I have a RH9 distro. I configured Cups1.1 for a HP Jetdirect printer. I dont know the way to include that in Mozilla. Mozilla doesnt seem to understand the printer configured under cups1.1. Anyone knows the solution?
cheers

Re: cups under mozilla
Does that have the listing for your printer in it?
You've tried restarting the Cups daemon?

Re: cups under mozilla
I did restart cups. Actually I rebooted my machine due a kernel upgrade after that. So, that is not the problem.
/etc/printcap is modified by cupsd. /etc/cups/printers.conf did have my printer configured.
I think I have to change some mozilla settings to gather the printer info from cups.
When I select print from mozilla and subsequently the properties, the info displayed is
lpr ${MOZ_PRINTER_NAME:+'-P'}${MOZ_PRINTER_NAME}
Anything needs to be changed here?
cheers

Re: cups under mozilla
Otherwise it should just use the default printer. Do you have a default printer set up?
Can you do the simple test:
date | lpr
and have it come out?
If not, try setting MOZ_PRINTER_NAME up in your .profile or something to be the device name of your printer.

Re: cups under mozilla
I changed the whole with qtcups which indeed opened the printer dialog box. I get cannot open temporary file. I think I need to specify a tmp dir to write the files.
I tried to make these changes permanent but insted corrupted the /usr/lib/mozilla-1.3.1/defaults/prefs/unix.js file. Now, I dont get any standard dialog boxes of mozilla for the whole print section of the File Menu.
cheers
