Actually I have found out why it wasnt working from default :
From a posting in google groups :
"Check which lpr you are using. Which should tell you /usr/bin/lpr, which is a link to /etc/alternatives/print. This in turn should be a link to /usr/bin/lpr.cups.
When I ran into this problem, it was a link to the LPRng version
of lpr. I removed LPRng and reinstalled CUPS."
So if your installation is not working by default, check this.

When I setup cups, I just tell it to print to the default printer, and it prints to the cups printer. I did not have to do any configuration of the individual applications after I got cups to work. Try and print something to the default printer and see if it comes out on the cups printer. After cups was setup I did not need to configure the individual applications. > --Luke > --Computer Science Sysadmin, MSU Bozeman > --admin(AT)cs.montana.edu 994-3931 > -----Original Message----- > From: psyche-list-admin@redhat.com [mailto:psyche-list-admin@redhat.com] > On Behalf Of Cedric Chausson > Sent: Thursday, January 16, 2003 12:45 AM > To: psyche-list@redhat.com > Subject: How to configure applications to use CUPS ? > > Hello all, > > I have installed CUPS and it works, I can print a test page from CUPS. > But how do I tell applications to use CUPS ? > > Is there a central place where I can tell all applications to use CUPS ? > > For example in gedit, in the print screen printer tab there are two > options : > Gnome default printer (PS, lpr) > Manage printers (which is greyed out) > > How do I get gedit to use CUPS ?
