Correction to original post sudo lpoptions -p Letters/test -o InputSlot=Tray5
is creating an lpoptions file, but the Letters/Test instance is not showing up in libreOffice or other printer lists. If I do a su - and then do the lpoptions command, no lpoptions file is created. If I use lpoptions as a non root user it creats the ~/.cups/lpoptions file, but still the printer instance in the file is not showing up anywhere to be printed too In summary, the real problem is not with the lpoptions command, but with the lpoption files being ignored. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to cups in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1926989 Title: lpoptions command won't create a new printer instance Status in cups package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Running the following command : sudo lpoptions -p Letters/test -o InputSlot=Tray5 returns without error sudo lpoptions -p Letters/test -l Shows that the the above command had no effect InputSlot=Auto After running the commands, there is no file /etc/cups/lpoptions Even if an lpoptions file is created manually, it has no effect.
