<div dir="ltr">Hey Marc,<div> </div><div>Sorry the late response. I took some time to test tuxpaint today. I could print out of the box with 3 printers I tested: HP Officejet Pro 8100, Brother DCP-7065DN and Epson L355 All those printers support LPR protocol. The only thing I did is to set the printer as my default, because tuxpaint prints without asking you what printer to use... So, did you check if your printer supports LPR/LPD? What printer are you using?</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"> <div class="gmail_quote">2014-11-19 20:20 GMT-02:00 Israel <<a href="mailto:israeldahl@gmail.com" target="_blank">israeldahl@gmail.com</a>>: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> <div bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000"><div><div class="h5"> <div>On 11/19/2014 03:22 PM, Marc Tremblay wrote: </div> <blockquote type="cite"> <div> Thanks Andre, The teachers would like to print directly from the application. I found a workaround where I have TuxPaint save the files in the pictures folder and then if I right click and select open with Firefox or Abiword , I am the able to print the .png file. This is three or four extra steps for the teachers and with a class of 25 + it becomes somewhat unmanageable. It should however work directly from the application as intended. I hate hearing it works in Windows why can’t it work in Lubuntu??

I know this is not a Lubuntu issue but this is a big enough issue for our teachers for them to not want to convert over to Lubuntu from Windows 7. We have converted part of their computer lab to Lubuntu 14.4 and the teachers are unable to print the pictures that the students had created. The error message they get is simply “ sorry your picture can not be printed”. There does not seem to be any way to configure the printing with TuxPaint. I found out that I can install a tuxpaint config application that allows you to use an alternative print command instead of “LPR” which I believe is the default in Tuxpaint. Is there an alternative print command I could use that would allow us to print directly from the application? Thanks Marc Tremblay Educational Services Dept Lester B.

By default, this command is the "lpr" printing tool. If that program is not available (for example, you're using CUPS, the Common Unix Printing System, and do not have "cups-lpr" installed), you will need to specify an appropriate command using the "printcommand" option in Tux Paint's configuration file. (See the <a href="http://www.tuxpaint.org/docs/html/OPTIONS.html" target="_blank">OPTIONS documentation</a>.) Note: Versions of Tux Paint prior to 0.9.15 used a different default command for printing, "pngtopnm | pnmtops | lpr", as Tux Paint output PNG format, rather than PostScript. If you had changed your "printcommand" option prior to Tux Paint 0.9.15, you will need to go back and alter it to accept PostScript. </li> <li>I get the message "You can't print yet!" when I go to print! The "print delay" option is on. You can only print once every X seconds. If you're running Tux Paint from a command-line, make sure you're not giving it a "<code>--printdelay=...</code>" option. If you're running Tux Paint by double-clicking an icon, check the properties of the icon to see if "<code>--printdelay=...</code>" is listed as a command-line argument. If a "<code>--printdelay=...</code>" option isn't being sent on the command line, check Tux Paint's configuration file ("~/.tuxpaintrc" under Linux and Unix, "tuxpaint.cfg" under Windows) for a line reading: "<code>printdelay=...</code>". Either remove that line, set the delay value to 0 (no delay), or decrease the delay to a value you prefer. (See the <a href="http://www.tuxpaint.org/docs/html/OPTIONS.html" target="_blank">OPTIONS documentation</a>). Or, you can simply run Tux Paint with the command-line argument: "<code>--printdelay=0</code>", which will override the configuration file's setting, and allow unlimited printing. (You won't have to wait between prints.) Or use Tux Paint Config. and make sure "Print Delay" (under "Printing") is set to "0 seconds." </li> <li>I simply can't print! The button is greyed out! The "no print" option is on. If you're running Tux Paint from a command-line, make sure you're not giving it a "<code>--noprint</code>" option. If you're running Tux Paint by double-clicking an icon, check the properties of the icon to see if "<code>--noprint</code>" is listed as an argument. If "<code>--noprint</code>" isn't on the command-line, check Tux Paint's configuration file ("~/.tuxpaintrc" under Linux and Unix, "tuxpaint.cfg" under Windows) for a line reading: "<code>noprint=yes</code>". Either remove that line, or simply run Tux Paint with the command-line argument: "<code>--print</code>", which will override the configuration file's setting. Or use Tux Paint Config. and make sure "Allow Printing" (under "Printing") is checked. </li> </ul> <pre cols="72">-- Regards</pre> </div> -- Lubuntu-users mailing list <a href="mailto:Lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com">Lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users</a> </blockquote></div> </div>
