http://forums.fedoraforum.org – Any ideas will be helpful. My home network printer configuration dissapears periodically. I am using Fedora 16, fresh install after using F13 for 2 years - no printer issues. I have a number of my company's printers defined [5] using a custom interface to CUPS, and these were installed and their configuration remain. I have a networked home laser printer that I have now re-installed 3 times now. I had the printer prior to my F13 installation and I had no problems with F13 and printing. When configured the printer works fine. The configuration of the printer also works fine. It is j (HowTos)

Stories similar to F16 Configured network printer configuration is lost after crash or reboot

Hi everyone,

I tried to install a new printer via the Printer Configuration GUI, but I always got an error message from CUPS saying "There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'cups-authorization-canceled'." I did a little bit of research on that but couldn't figure out how to solve the problem (yes, CUPS is running), so I installed the printer via the http://127.0.0.1:631/ and it

I have Fedora 17, KDE. I open Printer Configuration and choose New Printer. I a CUPS server error, "There was an error during the CUPS operation: ' cups-authorization-canceled'. The printer is plugged in.

I previously added a Photosmart-C2400 sucessfully.

system-config-printers issue 15 weeks 3 days ago

I had initially configured a printer and the printer device stopped working so I removed it and reconfigured the printer incorrectly.

Hi, I can't configure my printer, which is run on a wireless network. The message I get when using Systems Settings/Printer Configuration is that printer configuration doesn't provide an interface KC Module. It says possible reasons are an error during last KDE upgrade or old third party modules lying around. Any suggestions what I should do to correct this?

I have several computers connected to a single network printer. I want to add a second profile for the network printer so that I can give it different printing properties (landscape vs portrait).

We are using Windows XP. The network printer has an address like:

\\SERVERCOMPUTER\Dell Laser Printer M! Dell Laser Printer M5200

How can I add a second printer profile or a network printer?

Hello all, For printing I use a print server which gives access to hundreds of different printers throughout the office. I see them all in cups or in the KDE printer configuration.

But in OpenOffice there is only a 'Generic printer' which prints on my default printer, but without any of the fancy options of the driver.

I am developing one app in which i have to print one receipt, receipt has one logo(static) image view, how can i print this to bluetooth printer, and i am new to this printing stuff, can any body help me by suggesting the configuration for bluetooth printer, i need to buy one printer for testing app. Is there any specification for printers? or any bluetooth printer will work?

Sorry, my question was ill formulated or incomplete (I edited the first post and title accordingly). I want to access thru system-config-printer gui the printer settings configuration and not by CUPS. How can I reinstall the crunchbang printer pack based on system-config-printer package.Thanks.
