Printing with mtPaint
Posted: Wed 15 Sep 2010, 10:12
As a newbie it wasn't obvious how to get mtpaint to print.
I found using "lpr %f" with my printer set to server default worked. However, it doesn't give a dialogue box to set scale etc.
I contacted the developer and he said
"A dialog box can be added by user, if so desired, by configuring the
"Print" action to use a GUI printing tool, such as "gtklp" (
http://gtklp.sourceforge.net ) which is more-or-less standard on
Puppy, and should be installable through 5.1's package manager."
I'm not sure how to do this "gtklp" is not reconised in the terminal and does not come up in puppy package search.
Any help much appreciated ; -)
