   Para:
   Assunto: accessing a networked printer to a FreeBSD box
   people,
   I am trying to access a printer from our LAN to my FreeBSD Desktop PC
   which package I needed to do that ? system-config-printer right ?
   NOTE :I am not trying to attach a new printer to FreeBSD just want to
   access an already working printer in our LAN
   I
   installed system-config-printer from ports , but whenever I tried
   to do $system-config-printer , one blank dialog window blinks
   away , the in the tty I am getting this error ..
   [bhagat@storm /usr/home/bhagat]$ system-config-printer
   Traceback (most recent call last):
   File
   "/usr/local/share/system-config-printer/system-config-printer.py",
   line 5272, in
   main(configure_printer, change_ppd)
   File
   "/usr/local/share/system-config-printer/system-config-printer.py",
   line 5242, in main
   mainwindow = GUI(configure_printer, change_ppd)
   File
   "/usr/local/share/system-config-printer/system-config-printer.py",
   line 333, in __init__
   self.AboutDialog.set_program_name(domain)
   AttributeError: 'gtk.AboutDialog' object has no attribute
   'set_program_name'
   [bhagat@storm /usr/home/bhagat]$
   what
   the exact issue ? what I made wrong , (I dont think I need CUPS to be
   installed as I was not trying to attach a printer to this FreeBSD box)
   .
   Here
   I am attaching the system-config-printer.py file please help me fix
   the
   issue ( OR I have to install any other package than
   system-config-printer ?)
   I thank you all in advance for any hints to fix it out . struggling to
   fix this issue for the last couple of days ..
   Any hints most Welcome
   Dhanesh
