acroread not seeing printers
in [Debian]

From: John A. Sullivan III on 15 Apr 2010 06:00 Hello, all. We've installed acroread 8.1.7-0.1 from debian-multimedia. It is not seeing any of the printers on our cups print server. It just shows the custom lpr printer. How do we get it to see our printers like all the other applications in our KDE setup do? We are running Lenny + backports.

Thanks - John Mmmm, IIRC you have to leave the default command as is (/usr/bin/lpr) and select a default printer in KDE. Acrobat should print for the default printer.

All the other applications, e.g., OpenOffice, KDE apps, Gnome dialogs such as in IceWeasel or Evolution, all see the printers.

I do see that I can fiddle with the ~/adobe/Acrobat/8.0Preferences/reader_prefs and set /printerCommand [/s (kprinter)] instead of (lp) but that's not quite the same. If we have to go that route, does anyone know how to edit /usr/lib/Adobe/Reader8/Reader/GlobalPrefs/reader_prefs to set this automatically when users run acroread for the first time?

Make that really *REALLY* old. If you're running Stable and that's what's in the Stable repos, then remove it an go directly to adobe to get the latest version. -- Dissent is patriotic, remember? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
