implement printing via cups api #156

Closed abma closed 2 years ago

abma commented 2 years ago

currently scribus just calls lpr for printing which requires i.e. "cups-bsd" on debian to be installed. it would be nice if cups would be directly used:

i guess some generic class for printing would be nice as there is duplicate code for printing already:

as i already wrote, i'm not sure that printing with cups is a good idea.

but if you want scribus to better support it, i guess you should add a ticket to https://bugs.scribus.net , the official scribus bug tracker.
