I've recently changed to Ubuntu to take advantage of the regular updates facility they provide. Unfortunately, one of the recent updates has been to CUPS, the printing susbsytem. As a result my printer queues seem to have been renamed. My printer is attached to my server machine and is accessed over the LAN. When I set up the printer on the server I established three queues: a4, for regular prints on A4 paper, a3 for larger jobs on A3 paper and photo for glossy photo printing. What seems to have happened is that the a4 and a3 queues now have the machine address appended: [EMAIL PROTECTED] for example. However, OO still has the original names in mind and so when I try to print, I get a pop-up error message: "Error in printing". It took me quite a while to figure out what caused this as there was no further info and I hadn't realised the names had changed. Now that I know what has happened the cure is simple, get OO to reload it's printer configuration. How can I do this? I can't locate anything in .openoffice2/user/config that relates to the printers. One odd thing that I noticed is that the OOo print dialog includes a printer that disappeared a long while back - long before I switched to Ubuntu. This makes me believe that there is a user config file somewhere that has this info in it.
Many thanks if you can point me in the right direction.
