Smile Freerock Gnome, Slackware 10.2


Okay, please forgive this stupid question as I'm a long time KDE user and use Gnome a bit on my Ubuntu box. I downloaded, installed Freerock Gnome today and everything works okay.

I can't seem to locate any printer set-up icons in any of the menus. Gnome is a bit different in Ubuntu 5.10. Freerock kept all of my printer settings from KDE so this isn't a huge deal. How do you set-up printing in freerock gnome? Am I missing an icon somewhere? A shell prompt command will work perhaps?

Thank you for any and all replies.

Thank you:-) I also found something interesting, there is a printer administration tab integrated into the open office portion of my menu in KDE and gnome. I think freerock gnome installed it. I'm marking this thread for future reference. Much appreciated.
