I'm sorry. This question was in my first post and still nobody has said yes or no. I have figured out by what I've seen in your screen capture that the answer is no. I'm also afraid I did not know whether pl's statement was referring to oo.org 2.0 or CUPS 2.0 .. or what that statement might imply in practical terms. I still don't. >On IRC I must have written 8 times or more that you should try with the >original OOo since RedHats version differs in the way it handles printers (and >spadmin). On my first post on this issue I pointed out that I have done that. I guess I should have been more specific in asking for clarification that it was not expected to show the CUPS printers in spadmin. At that time I was under the impression that I could modify the CUPS printers in spadmin and couldn't figure out how to do that if they weren't even listed in spadmin. Since then I've been able to piece together a better idea of what is expected to happen. >If you don't understand what the information you're given means, then please >>ask >for clarification, but I'm getting tired of writing the same stuff over and >>over >again. Again I must apologize for not knowing enough to be able to ask for clarification of specific points satisfactorily. Truly I do not understand the oo.org system for dealing with fax printers, I've had trouble finding information that I could use successfully, and I've had trouble finding anyone that had any knowledge of the fax system backend. It has come to light that part of the problem is that I'm using a customized version of the software that nobody else is (ie the Fedora Core 3 rpm of 1.1.3) >> Is there a config file anywhere for spadmin? >erAck told you on IRC. And you tried the configuration only to see that the >redhat version ignores the settings found therein. >The user-configuration is in ~/OpenOffice.org1.1.4/user/psprint/psprint.conf >But since RedHat changes the default installation directories as well you'll >have to find out yourself where it should be placed. Again sorry. I thought that was a printer config file for oo.org. I was unable to get anyone to confirm whether it was also used by spadmin Unfortunately replacing the fedora rpm with version 1.1.4 from openoffice.org takes some effort to complete the reconfiguration (desktop menus no longer work, moving of dictionaries, reconfiguring for template locations, etc) and I've trying to avoid testing it on my work machines. I started it on my home machine but since have had a power flicker and it no longer turns on (I'm working on debugging it). Hopefully I can continue testing with oo.org 1.1.4 on that Fedora Core 3 machine and will not find something else that prevents it from worling as expected. Then I will feel confident enough to attempt it on my laptop and the workstations at work. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
