Printer Applet is a system tray utility. It shows current print jobs, shows printer warnings and errors and shows when printers that have been plugged in for the first time are being auto-configured by hal-cups-utils.

It replaces kjobviewer from &kde; 3.

It is a &kde; port of system-config-printer's applet.py by Tim Waugh from Red Hat.

Printer Applet is displayed in the system tray when a print job is launched. Click on the printer icon in the system tray and you will see a dialog with running print jobs.

In this dialog you are able to manage your print jobs. Use the menu items to refresh the job list, show completed jobs and the printer status.

A &RMB; click on a job shows a context menu with options to cancel, hold, release and print a job.
