hello

Printer preferences in menu? Hmm. I am not sure if I understand properly. You mean, you have installed it and it disappeared? Which version of Bodhi you are using? App-pack? Because there is no printer preferences in the default iso. Thus you have to install it manually.

I suggest installing or reinstalling "bodhi-printing" package.

i installed 5.0 appack

on 2 laptops it is in menu - applications preferences - on my wife's it is not. seems like an update stopped all priunmters from working and i did synaptic hplip and they work. my 2 i had to add a network printer etc. hers just worked but she does not have any listing in the menu.

so how do i install it please/ this happened 1-2 x in bodhi 4 and 4.5- that is strange.

added: is that printer support in appcenter? or something else????
