If you go to "K-menu > Settings > Printers" you can check the setting in the "Print system currently used" combobox. It should say "CUPS (Common UNIX Print System)". It looks like your CUPS is working. You could nevertheless check if you can print a test page via the http://localhost:631/printers/ frontend of CUPS. (I expect that you can, given that the cupsys-bsd-based lpr works.) Then I would switch to LogLevel debug in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf, restart cupsys and try to print from kpdf again. Hopefully something turns up in /var/log/cups/error_log. It would also be interesting to know if other KDE applications, e.g. kate, have the same printing problem. Also, as always, check ~/.xsession-errors after the unsuccessful printing attempts. -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
