Re: Printer 13.04

 

Hi all, this is a update on the printer not been recognized. I did a clean
install of Lubuntu 13.04 beta2 and tried to install my cannon MG2120 to no
luck. I then followed the instructions on the bug report.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/system-config-printer/+bug/1133794
.
which said see if cups is running, by in terminal type lpstat -r. if it
comes up (scheduler is not running) then start cups. sudo start cups. After
i did that, I went to the system tools>printer. and was able to config my
printer. So I guess that the bug still at large where 13.04 is not turning
cups on by default.
I hope this is helpful.
regards
jose
