Hi, Is it possible (and how) to set openoffice (1.0.2) to print to kprinter, i.e. can you give it the print command somewhere? Thanks for any hint.
The reason for asking is that I have a laptop which is connected to different printers at different times, and they all work nicely from KDE applications, but openoffice only gives me "Generic printer" which seems to be a network printer that I'm using in the office, so all jobs are queued and printed next time I connect to the departmental network and I can't print at home. I'm sorry if this is really a stupid question, but I must say that I find the printing setup in Linux really quite confusing, although I'm fairly computer literate (but no expert). I don't know if I can describe my setup in enough details for you to help me: I set up the network printer using the redhat-config-printer tool, and it basically found the network printer automatically, using LPD. At home I have a Lexmark Z25 for which I downloaded and installed a driver from Lexmark. Other than these two steps, I haven't fiddled with the printer settings. Actually the Lexmark shows up in the kprinter dialog and works fine, but does *not* appear in the redhat-config-printer tool - is this something to worry about? Back to Openoffice: So either I want it to sent the print jobs to kprinter (so that I can choose my Lexmark) or set up the Lexmark in a way that it is recognized by Openoffice. I actually would prefer printing through the kprinter thing because it seems better designed. Any help appreciated.... Thanks in advance!
