Krishna,
in the proper american idiom you are sol. Neither Gnome, nor KDE,
nor plain xterm support local printing. I find it very,very frustrating.
You will be forced to create hp direct style queues and do rewrites to
perfectly good software to accomodate them. The really insulting part is
that the print queues are not fully 2-way.
I have talked to Mike Meeks of Ximian at the Linuxworld, and he
says that gnome term might be extended to support screen print of
character data, but seems to be opposed to any support of the xterminal
style printing controlled by xdefaults specified attributes (no
decTerminalID or PrinterCommand for us). Very, very frustrating. I have
actually gone through the rewrite of my business app to accomodate the
broken printing on linux ("we like the xterm, but we sure don't understand
the man pages" seems to be the motto there). There is a commercial app
that supposedly supports local print, but I just couldn't make it run.
good luck, julius
