Re: Printing in KDE

["Stephan Hachinger" <Stephan.Hachinger@gmx.de>]

Hi!

I had the same problem; I think installing lprng instead of lpd solves the
problem... if not, try to switch the "print system" setting in KDE from LPR
to BSD and back etc, the problems should go away. Only little syntax
incompatibilites or so.

Cheers,

Stephan
