Public bug reported:

Affects: gnome-cups-manager (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
When I go to System->Administration->Printing, then try to add my
printer, I can't see it, it's not detected.  However it used to be
detected perfectly (at least Warty and Hoary did, not 100% sure about
Breezy).

If I select the printer manually from the list, it works, though I am
presented with no less than 4 different drivers and have no clue what to
choose !

When I look at the kernel log in /var/log/dmesg, I can see that the
printer has been perfectly detected at boot:

[4294702.734000] parport: PnPBIOS parport detected.
[4294702.735000] parport0: PC-style at 0x378, irq 7 [PCSPP,TRISTATE]
[4294702.742000] parport0: Printer, Hewlett-Packard HP LaserJet 6P

...so I assumed it must be CUPS at fault (not knowing any better) ?
