Solving Problems
Possible Cause and Solution
You need to have administrator privileges to be able
to change global settings.
You may not have the GTK libraries installed. These
usually come with most Linux distributions, but you
may have to install them manually. Refer to your
distribution's installation manual for more details
about installing additional packages.
Some versions of the KDE or GNOME desktop
environments may require that you restart your
session for the changes to take effect.
Some printers have conflicting settings, meaning
that some settings for two options can't be selected
at the same time. When you change a setting and
the Printer Package detects such a conflict, the
conflicting option is changed to a "No Choice" value.
You have to choose an option that does not conflict
before being able to submit the changes.
In some conditions, it may not be possible to
change the default queue. This happens with some
variants of LPRng, especially on recent RedHat
systems that use the "printconf" database of
queues.
When using printconf, the /etc./printcap file is
automatically refreshed from the database of
printers managed by the system (usually through
the "printtool" command), and the queues in /
etc./printcap.local are appended to the resulting
file. The default queue in LPRng is defined as the
first queue in /etc./printcap, and therefore it is
not possible for the Linux Printer Package to change
the default when some queues have otherwise been
defined using printtool.
LPD systems identify the default queue as the one
named "lp". Thus, if there is already a queue by this
name, and if it doesn't have an alias, then you won't
be able to change the default. To work around this,
you can either delete the queue or rename it by
manually editing the /etc./printcap file.
The N-up feature is achieved through post-
processing of the PostScript data that is sent to the
printing system. However, such post-processing can
only be adequately achieved if the PostScript data
conforms to the Adobe Document Structing
Conventions. Problems may arise when using N-up
and other features that rely on post-processing if
the document being printed isn't compliant.
