I have a local printer connected directly by USB (Epson sylus CX6600) and the process still takes about ten seconds or more, so it can't be a problem only with network-connected device.
A timeout option somewhere would be nice as most of the time i am quite happy for it to just print with my default settings and not tell me any information anyway. Additionally, attempting to close the gnome-print dialogue should abort the "fetching printer information" task rather than causing the program from which one was attempting to print to hang while you wait. -- Gnome print dialog box poll for printer info every time it's opened https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/534985 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gtk+2.0 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
