Kubuntu 8.10 switched from the KDE 3.x generation to the KDE 4.x generation. Unfortunately, the KDE Printing Manager was unmaintained in KDE 2.x and 3.x and got therefore dropped in KDE 4.x. This left the KDE/Qt world without a sophisticated printer setup tool. In the beginning of this year efforts were started to create a KDE frontend for system-config-printer, but they did not make much progress. Most of system-config-printer's sophisticated functionality is not yet ported into the KDE version.
system-config-printer (the original GTK-based version) has the functionality you need. So as a first workaround for the time being you should install this version via sudo apt-get install system-config-printer-gnome ** Changed in: system-config-printer-kde (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: cupsys => system-config-printer-kde Importance: Undecided => High -- samba printers not detected https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295065 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to system-config-printer-kde in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
