1.6 Managing Print Jobs from the Client
Users can monitor and manage their own print jobs from their workstations using the CUPS
management utility included with your Linux distribution. GNOME users can use the printer folder
in
Computer > Control Center > Printers , and KDE users can use the KJobViewer by clicking the
main menu button > Tools > Printing > KJobViewer (Print Jobs) .
NOTE: If the iPrint server is busy when your installed printer attempts to communicate, CUPS
moves the printer into an error state and holds all print jobs. To release print jobs, use a printer
management utility to restart the printer.

and upload drivers to a driver store from a terminal prompt. The iprntcmd utility is located in
/
opt/novell/iprint/bin/iprntcmd
