TurboPrint widget

Post by broadstairs »

Maybe I'm mistaken but I thought there was a specific TP widget for KDE Plasma but I am unable to find one. I'm running openSUSE Tumbleweed KDE Plasma 6.

Any suggestions please?

Can I please get an answer to this query? I am running openSUSE Tumbleweed with KDE Plasma 6.4 using Wayland. Also the Preview for a print job does not pop up until after data is sent for the first page and the Monitor does not usually open automatically when I start a print job so I am now in the habit of starting it manually.

Hello, currently there is an applet for KDE Plasma 5.x, not for Plasma 6.x. Support for KDE Plasma 6 may be added in a future TurboPrint release.

About TurboPrint Monitor - it should be running in the background after user login. Can you please check from a Terminal window by entering
ps ax | grep turboprint
This should list something like
... turboprint-monitor 0 -hide

Thanks. I hope this will be sooner rather than later since the LTS version of openSUSE (Leap) will move to Plasma 6 QT6 by September this year and so the current widget will stop working in the LTS version as it has already in Tumbleweed.
