big flaming bug: using printtool to send print jobs to an NT-hosted laserjet printer, i get two copies of every page...including test pages. (printtool-3.41-2 rhs-printfilters-1.57-3 lpr-0.48-1) also, the printtool UI SUCKS. -- i'm sick of that *^&* smb "unencrypted password" warning/notification. fix the problem. only bug me about it once... and don't bother me with it if i haven't set a password. better yet issue the dialog only once when/if the password is set. -- it should be documented that for smb printers, the hostname of the printer is mislabeled. the value being solicited is the "share name" -- if I highlight a printer, edit it's configuration, and then pick "print test page" off the menu, i DON'T WANT TO BE TOLD I HAVE TO SELECT A PRINTER. -- remove the "ADD" button and put "-- add new printer --" in the printer selection list in it's place. Also put New Printer on the menu -- there needs to be a quit/done button (the temptation to delete a printer is just too great because the delete button is where one would normally find quit) -- i could go on, but what's the point?
printtool will be obsolete in 7.0 anyway. We're working on something new (printer-config). A beta version will be included in 6.2 [along with printtool, as the new tool doesn't have all of printtool's functionality yet].
