4 Hi All,
5
6 Well, I'm progressing with Gentoo. I now have it on my main computer
7 and am *very* pleased. I even managed to get my Radeon 8500 graphics
8 card working with 3D acceleration.
9
10 However, I am having problems with getting printing to work.
11
12 I emerged both hal and cups. Using kde's print manager, I was able to
13 configure my DeskJet printer - the printer was recognized in the 'Add
14 Printer' interface. However, when I send a print job to the printer,
15 nothing happens.
16
17 Second problem is that I have another printer connected to my system.
18 The DeskJet is connected via usb. However, I have a Laser Jet
19 connected to the parallel port. I built parallel support into the
20 kernel, but in the kde print manager, the printer does not appear in
21 the 'Add Printer' interface.
22
23 Any help would be appreciated.
24
25 Regards,
26
