how to set it up so that OOo will recognise the printer as the default
      

and print through it.

I should say that I have attempted to invoke the printer admin option by
    

./spadmin in my home directory, and when that failed, in the
    

/usr/share/oo /etc/oo and /usr/lib/oo directories as well. I have done
    

this both as normal user and as sudo. To each attempt, the response is
    

the same: No such file or directory.
    

Beyond this the OOo help is of no help, so I am really hoping that
    

someone here has an answer. I have a large document that I need to print
    

out so I am feeling a little crazy about this.
    

Any tips/ideas please?
    

TIA

Hello,

I invoked ./spadmin in /usr/lib/openoffice/program and I could add a HP

photosmart printer



I hope this will help you

That was what I was looking for - many thanks!! In Slackware, one could just do that from within /home and I just could not locate it anywhere in Deb.

Many thanks for your help!!!
