Anyone out there having trouble printing with mandy 8.2? I have used the kde print tool and everything looks as if it should work, it just doesn't. I have verified that the printer works fine. It is an hp photosmart p1000. kde found the right driver in its list and applied it. It has a name and port address. I did however get a pop-up screen when finalizing the config that said:(in Kmail) kde has logeed a request to access local host on port 631 but requires a password. It brings up my local login name and when I use my password it kicks it back as invalid. Any Ideas on how to solve this?
Sounds like your using the CUPS print system. Have you tried to use the generic LPD Unix print system?
