[kde4] Can't configure advanced printer options

Just to clarify so we can try to address the problem. Are you saying the options you want are present in the GUI but are disabled or are you saying that these features are absent all together?

thanks

The features are missing alltogether, I can configure them with the cups administration via http://localhost:631, and when printing the options are available from openoffice, firefox, and kde4/3 applications, but they can't be setup with the currently included kde printer config tool.

For instance - if you setup a multifunction printer such as the toshiba e-studio 3511 there are optional components that can be installed, there are a lot of options that can't be set, department codes, and private password, as well as those listed in the bug report.

If you view the attached screenshot - most of the features listed in advanced can't be set with the current printer config too.

Thanks for the feedback Jason. I've added this to the wishlist of features to be added in a future version.

This bug was fixed in the package kdeadmin - 4:4.2.2-0ubuntu2
