Managing Printers
Printers can either be connected to your system locally or
accessed over a network. To use a local printer, make sure
that it is connected to your machine. Shut down the system
before connecting a non-USB printer to your system.
You can configure printers with YaST. Start YaST, then click
Hardware → Printer to open the main printer configuration
window. Depending on the network environment or your
local printer model, YaST might be able to configure the
printer automatically. If autodetection of printing devices
fails, click Add in the Printer Configuration dialog box to
start the manual configuration workflow. Follow the instruc-
tions in the YaST online help. If you are not sure which op-
tion to choose and which information to enter, ask your
system administrator.
After configuring a printing device correctly, you can ad-
dress it from any application.
If you have active printing jobs, a printer icon is shown in
your tray. Click on the icon to open a dialog which lets you
manage your print jobs.
