I am still having trouble configuring lyx 1.3 to print in RedHat 8.0. This is the advice I received from the Tips and Tricks page:
Printer Installation
It is possible to use XPP (X printing panel) for printing from LyX instead of the default printing GUI:
Add the following lines to ~/.lyx/preferences
\Format printer "" "Printer" "" \converter dvi printer "dvips $$i -o !xpp" ""
Also, copy the file LYXDIR/ui/default.ui to ~/.lyx/ui/default.ui and change the line
Item "Print...|P" "buffer-print" into Item "Print...|P" "buffer-export printer"
Note that when you install a new version of LyX, you will need to update the default.ui file.
So I did all of that but have had no success. Should I be modifying some of these lines to fit my specific computer and printer? Do I need the name of my printer? If so, is the name required the device name or the queue name? If any of you has ever done this before then please help. Thank you.
Andrew
