Mmmm, that article says something about "env" variables: *** Environment Variables Make sure that LID_LIBRARY_PATH points to the location for libcups and also CUPS lp and lpr are in PATH. When you invoke the print dialog using Control+P, all the printers configured show up in the Printer Name dropdown. *** I'm not sure how to check this in Debian, maybe someone else can give you a hint on this :-) Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
