AFTER LOAD CONFIG no Printers Found!

Post#1 by CEOS » 19 Aug 2019, 19:31

Hi Guys,

I need some support to solve the printing question on Porteus Kiosk. I´m using the client only. My goal is deploy 3 terminals on my job to internet access and printing.

So, First i´ve used the Wizard and saved the config results on usb stick. Later, Im using the "Load Config" feature to do the installation, but some goes wrong... the CTRL+P doesn´t show any printers.

What is the problem? Thanks in advance.

Below, my config file:
------------------------------------------------------------
connection=wired
dhcp=yes
browser=chrome
dpms_idle=60
hostname=kiosk
homepage="my corporate homepage"
primary_keyboard_layout=br
printer_model=Samsung M306x Foomatic/pxlmono
printer_connection=ipp://my internal IP/ipp/printer name
printer_name=Alias_Printer
paper_size=A4
root_password=mypass
allow_icmp_protocol=yes
session_idle=5
right_mouse_click=yes
allow_popup_windows=yes
timezone=America/Sao_Paulo
wallpaper="my url to a wallpaper"
screensaver_idle=15
screensaver_webpage="my url to a video"
whitelist=127.0.0.1 some sites i wanna to access....
zRAM=50%
additional_components=10-printing.xzm
run_command=sed -i 's#/run/cups/cups.sock#my internal IP#g' /etc/cups/client.conf
------------------------------------------------------------

Hello CEOS,

Printing support should appear after installation of the kiosk system.

Thanks

Thanks for reply. But dont happens. When type Ctrl+P only "save as PDF" is available. A thing... if I test the printing at wizard, the printer shows up but if i use Load Config (without wizard) no printers. Is the CUPS the problem?

Please contact with support@porteus-kiosk.org and provide SSH access to your kiosk.
This would be the fastest way to find out where the problem is.
