system-config-printer-applet
SYSTEM-CONFIG-PRIN(1) Man pages SYSTEM-CONFIG-PRIN(1)
NAME
system-config-printer-applet - print job manager
SYNOPSIS
system-config-printer-applet [--no-tray-icon]
DESCRIPTION
system-config-printer-applet is a print job manager for CUPS. Normally it will display a printer icon in the notification area, greyed out
when there are no print jobs for the current user. Clicking on the icon displays a simple print job manager for cancelling or reprinting
jobs.
To save memory, the applet waits first of all until the user has printed a job before putting the icon in the notification area. To invoke
the print job manager before a job has been printed, run the applet with the --no-tray-icon option: a desktop file is provided for this, so
that it should appear in the system menu.
As well as displaying a printer icon in the notification area, the applet also provides a D-BUS server for the
com.redhat.PrintDriverSelection interface, to help configure a new printer when it is plugged in.
OPTIONS
--help
Display a short usage message.
--version
Display the version of the applet.
--no-tray-icon
Do not display an icon in the notification area. Quit when the job manager window is closed.
