Hello,
I use KDEPrint on a Debian GNU/Linux system and want my print jobs to be sent
to an LPD print server on a Solaris machine. Unfortunately my Linux user
name differs from the one I have on the Solaris machine and the LPD checks
whether the username provided to it is sensible.
I don't want to change my username on the Linux box and am not allowed to do
so on the Solaris box. However, the problem can easily be solved by
providing the -U switch to rlpr like in
rlpr -U <my-solaris-username> -H <host> -P <printer>.
The problem is that I haven't found any way to tell KDEPrint that it shall use
-U <my-solaris-username> on all calls to rlpr. How do I achieve what I want?
Best wishes,
Wolfgang
