KPrinter4

KPrinter4 is a simple stand-alone PostScript document printer modelled after the KDE 4 print dialog. It can be used in place of /bin/lpr in order to better control the print setup of non-KDE applications.

Main features:

  • Printing PostScript documents with KDE 4 print dialog.
  • Scaling and positioning of documents.
  • Poster printing (backported from the known KDE 3 KPrinter tool).

Known limitations so far:

  • Poster printing with multi-page documents: Only first page will be taken.

Prerequisites

Debian Packages: psutils, ghostscript, poster

mkdir build cd build cmake -DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr .. make (sudo) make install
