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
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 in the
dialog box to start the manual
configuration workflow. Follow the instructions in the YaST online
help. If you are not sure which option to choose and which information
to enter, ask your system administrator.
After configuring a printing device correctly, you can address 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.
