Printing From The Command Line; Special Features In Suse Linux Enterprise Desktop - Novell LINUX ENTERPRISE DESKTOP 11 - ADMINISTRATION GUIDE 17-03-2009 Administration Manual

either kprinter or kprinter --stdin as the print command. The command to
use depends on how the application transmits the data—just try which one works. If
set up correctly, the application should open the KPrinter dialog whenever a print job
is issued from it, so you can use the dialog to select a queue and set other printing op-
tions. This requires that the application's own print setup does not conflict with that of
KPrinter and that printing options are only changed through KPrinter after it has been
enabled. More information on KPrinter is available in Chapter 7, Managing Print Jobs
(↑KDE User Guide).

12.6 Printing from the Command Line

To print from the command line, enter lp -d queuename filename, substituting
the corresponding names for queuename and filename.
Some applications rely on the lp command for printing. In this case, enter the correct
command in the application's print dialog, usually without specifying filename, for
example, lp -d queuename.
12.7 Special Features in SUSE Linux
Enterprise Desktop
A number of CUPS features have been adapted for SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop.
Some of the most important changes are covered here.
12.7.1 CUPS and Firewall
After having performed a default installation of SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop,
SuSEfirewall2 is active and the network interfaces are configured to be in the
External Zone which blocks incoming traffic. These default settings have to be
adjusted when using CUPS. More information about the SUSEfirewall2 configuration
is available in Section "SuSEfirewall2" (Chapter 15, Masquerading and Firewalls,
↑Security Guide).
