Description vfiend 2007-06-06 04:58:28 UTC

Description of problem: Be gentle because i'm not sure if this is a s-c-printer
bug or a system-level bug, but with the en_CA locale, paper size defaults to A4
when it should default to letter.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.7.63.1-1.fc7.x86_64

Comment 1 Tim Waugh 2007-06-06 08:44:44 UTC

What does this say?:

cat /etc/sysconfig/i18n

Also, how precisely did you add the queue?  Which driver did you use? (A
different method of adding the printer is used depending on whether CUPS already
has the PPD or whether we generate it from Foomatic.)

Comment 2 vfiend 2007-06-06 08:54:01 UTC

$ cat /etc/sysconfig/i18n
LANG="en_CA.UTF-8"
SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16"


I turned on my usb printer and opened s-c-printer. It seemed to have added it
automatically under 'Local Printers' with no effort required on my part (which
was shockingly awesome) but it defaulted to A4 size paper instead of letter.

I'm not sure how it was generated but 'Make and model' says "Canon iP4000
Foomatic/gutenprint-ijs-simplified.5.0 (recommended)"

Comment 3 Tim Waugh 2007-06-06 09:07:33 UTC

Ah, okay, that comes from hal-cups-utils.  Should be easy to fix.
