Fedora Printing Project
The Fedora Printing Project's goal is to create a good printing experience on Fedora.
Ideas about the new printer administration tool
Tasks
- (DONE) SELinux policy might need updating
- (DONE) HAL changes for IEEE 1284 IDs. Needs to store COMMANDSET field, and needs to probe parallel ports for printers.
- (DONE) new HAL method for dealing with a printer being plugged in
- eggcups dialog changes
- create foomatic printer XML entries for all PPDs. Currently foomatic ships with lots of PPDs, but several of them have no XML entries to hold the autodetection strings.
- better SMB browser
- need to fix 'hal' backend to provide IEEE 1284 Device ID
- HAL 'new printer' method could enable hplip service on demand
CUPS 1.2
We will be shipping CUPS 1.2 as an update to Fedora Core 5 as soon as is feasible. There are some changes to be aware of for the admin side.
