When I click on the "File" drop-down menu (top-left corner of the atril |
30 |
window) and choose the "Print" item, I get a pop-up dialog widget that |
31 |
lets me configure a bunch of settings before the document is sent to |
32 |
the printer. Included in those settings is "Print current page" (as |
33 |
opposed to "Print all", or I can type in the page numbers to print). |
34 |
|
35 |
I get exactly the same pop-up "Print" widget whether I'm printing from |
36 |
atril, web browser, libreoffice, or this email client (claws). |
37 |
|
38 |
I've been seeing the same print widget for so many years I stopped |
39 |
wondering which package installs it, but it's not part of any app that |
40 |
lets me print things. I think it's part of the gnome/mate/xfce/lxde |
41 |
family of desktops because I use all of those and the printer widget is |
42 |
always the same. Must be a gtk thing because all of those desktops |
43 |
install the same gtk infrastructure. |
44 |

Can anyone else enlighten us on the printer widget I'm describing? |
