Package: kdeprint Version: 4:3.5.5a-2 Severity: important I am unable to create a local CUPS printer using the KDE printer manager. I have experienced the same problem with on two different machines with different printers, so the problem seems to be fairly generic. A higher severity may be appropriate as the user cannot make use of the print facility at all unless he/she can create a printer.
Initial conditions: CUPS installed, but no printer configured. Steps to reproduce: 1/ Launch KDE Control Center 2/ Switch to Administrator Mode 3/ Choose Add Printer/Class - Select "Local printer" - Select USB printer (in my case USB #1 -> Samsung ML-2010) - Select driver (in my case the foomatic/gdi driver for Samsung ML-200) 4/ Press "Test". I get an error message : "Unable to create temporary printer" 5/ Click through the remaining screens, and press "Finish" I get an error message : "Unable to create printer. Error message received from manager: client-error-bad-request" Additional tests: I can create the printer just fine using foomatic-gui, and it works OK. The printer now appears correctly in the KDE printer manager, and it is even possible to remove the printer via KDE's interface. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages kdeprint depends on: ii enscript 1.6.4-10 Converts ASCII text to Postscript, ii kdelibs4c2a 4:3.5.5a.dfsg.1-2 core libraries and binaries for al ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcc1 1:4.1.1-17 GCC support library ii libqt3-mt 3:3.3.7-1 Qt GUI Library (Threaded runtime v ii libstdc++6 4.1.1-17 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii poster 1:19990428-8 Create large posters out of PostSc ii psutils 1.17-23 A collection of PostScript documen Versions of packages kdeprint recommends: ii gs-esp [postscript-viewe 8.15.3.dfsg.1-1 The Ghostscript PostScript interpr ii gs-gpl [postscript-viewe 8.54.dfsg.1-5 The GPL Ghostscript PostScript int ii gv [postscript-viewer] 1:3.6.2-1 PostScript and PDF viewer for X ii kghostview [postscript-v 4:3.5.5-1 PostScript viewer for KDE -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
