           Summary: Remote LPD Printer "Test Page" Does Not Work
           Product: kdeprint
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kde-print-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: maxcantor gmail com


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.6)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I have an Epson Stylus Color 740 attached to an SMC Wireless Barricade G router with a USB print server.  I used kdeprint to setup the printer as a remote LPD queue on my router's IP address (192.168.2.1) and the correct queue (LPT1).  I was perplexed, because when I hit "Test Page" and it said, "Page successfully sent to printer," nothing happened.  After a long time I decided to try adding it anyway and printing from kate.  When I continued the rest of the way through the wizard, added the printer, then printed a page from kate, it worked fine.  kdeprint's "Test Page" function failed to print, though, which completely misled from seeing that I had set everything up properly after all.
