Naming printer queues in OpenSuse 11. 0 using YAST

I want to create multiple queues to the same printer that is going to be shared in a local network. Each queue will use the printer with different printing settings.

I used to be able to give different names to each queue, but since I upgraded to OpenSUSE 11.0 I cannot see where you can set the queue names. Did it change the place to set the queue name or is there a user interface problem with YAST printer setup?

I never use YaST printing module to setup and manage printers so I can’t
tell :-?

Have you tested with Cups? Just open a browser, type “http://localhost:631
and you are in :slight_smile:

OK, it worked. It is not so intuitive to add a new printer as YaST but it was sufficient for now. Thanks.
