2.3.1.2 Editing a Local Printer Conguration
By editing an existing conguration for a local printer you can not only change basic
settings as connection type and driver, but also adjust the default settings for paper
size, resolution, media source, etc. You can change the identier of the printer by
altering the printer descriptions.
Procedure 2.5 Editing a Local Printer
1 Start the YaST printer module with Hardware > Printer
2 In the Printer Congurations screen, choose a local printer from the list and
click Edit.
3 Change the connection type or the driver as described in Procedure 2.3,
“Adding a New Local Printer” (page 32). This should only be necessary in case
you have problems with the current conguration.
4 Make this printer the default by checking Default Printer.
5 Adjust the default settings by clicking All Options for the Current Driver. To
change a setting, expand the list of options by clicking the relative + sign.
Change the default by clicking on an option. Apply your changes by clicking
OK
2.3.2 Conguring Printing via the Network with YaST
Network printers are not detected automatically. They must be congured manually
using the YaST printer module. Depending on your network setup, you can print to
a print server (CUPS, LPD, SMB, or IPX) or directly to a network printer (preferably
via TCP). Access the conguration view for network printing by choosing Printing via
Network from the left pane in the YaST printer module.
2.3.2.1 Using CUPS
In a Linux environment CUPS is usually used to print via the network. The simplest
setup is to only print via a single CUPS server which can directly be accessed by all
clients. Printing via more than one CUPS server requires a running local CUPS daemon
that communicates with the remote CUPS servers.
