printing (fixed)

[dazss]

Hi I have set my printer up in cups config page through the web browser "localhoust:631"
and the test page prints great.
But the printer shows up in all kde applications but does no print, I get no error message, the print dialog box just disapears but no print.
In other applications such as firefox open-office etc the printer is not even listed.
the printer is a canon ip3300 connected to a apple extreme airport via usb.
I have posted this on the desktop forum but had no luck may be in the wrong place so thought I would try again here.
any pointers would be appreciated.

I had a similar issue with a networked printer once, although I don't remember if I solved it yet (had to go work on other things). Try setting up the printer using the KDE control panel and see if that helps.
