WISHES
|
|
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Implement a generic banner behavior: banners would be insrted
|
|
|
|
as standard print file before and/or after the actual file. This
|
|
|
|
would allow for KDE-specific banners and translated banners.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Possibility to specify a different input slot for first page???
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- add "Subject" or "Regarding" to kdeprintfax interface: look first
|
|
|
|
if this is possible in efax and/or hylafax
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- add the possibility to view a printjob file (if possible)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- restarting server: use of "ps" in a subshell to get the pid, possibility
|
|
|
|
of authentification (put this into separate program that would restart
|
|
|
|
itself using kdesu).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- CUPS: a "Printer/Server Debugging Helper" would be nice: you could
|
|
|
|
vary the LogLevel there, restart the server, provide a viewer
|
|
|
|
for the error_log (maybe the other logs too) with life updates
|
|
|
|
including means to "grep" for errors and keywords. It could even
|
|
|
|
become extended to provide for some automatic reporting tool that
|
|
|
|
collects the data to be send in for bug reports (like PPD in use,
|
|
|
|
CUPS version, KDEPrint version, printer-make-and-modell, usage
|
|
|
|
of foomatic/cupsomatic, ghostscript version etc.). -kp-
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- log viewer: page_log, error_log, ... This could be based on XML
|
|
|
|
templates and produce printable HTML reports.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- in CUPS possibility to filter printer using printer-type attribute,
|
|
|
|
to get only printers having a specified capability. Service Location
|
|
|
|
Protocol might be useful here (perhaps via the Knot).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- show information from Foomatic DB in some way (comments)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- "Save as new instance" possibility in the print dialog
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- raw printing option
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- add a generic option edit line to let the user specify any option
|
|
|
|
he wants
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- support new options for N-up printing in CUPS, put everything in
|
|
|
|
a separate page with graphical widgets, and replace the N-up zone
|
|
|
|
of the "General" page with Color/GrayScale.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- allow to set the job title in kprinter
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- preview multi files sequentially
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- support for ICC (have a look at GS-7.05 that support ICC)

|
- accessing Fax settings from "Fax" printer configuration dialog??
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- allow extracting PPD files from exe (like those from Adobe) using
|
|
|
|
the cabextract utility http://www.kyz.uklinux.net/cabextract.php3
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- cupsaddsmb: allow downloading/extracting the Adobe PS driver package
|
|
|
|
using cabextract utility. Note: in cups-1.1.16, a free Windows
|
|
|
|
driver should be included, such that Adobe drivers won't be needed
|
|
|
|
anymore.
