KInk
A KDE printer ink level utility monitor released under the GPL license.
The idea came to me when I realized than under Linux I've had no chance to
check my DeskJet 920C's cartdrige ink level, while in Windows the tools
furnished by HP could do so... Then I surfed the web looking for something that
could help me with my problem... The solution was already there, from Markus
Heinz, but his tool was based on a text interface, that didn't integrate well
in my colorful KDE desktop... So I decided to develop a little KDE frontend for
the Heinz's library. KInk was born that way...
This work represent one of my first experiences in Linux programming: any suggestions and/or critics will be very appreciated;
feel free to mail them to me at moris_ravasio@hotmail.com

Here are some screenshots of KInk version 0.2.1 taken from my desktop:
System
requirements
I've developed and tested this application with the libraries listed above; maybe it can work even with other versions of them,
but I've no time to spend for testing all possibilities. Let me know if you test KInk in different environments...
This software is released as is under the GPL license; I decline any responsibility from whatever may occour to your
hardware/software using this application.
Thanks
