Sorry for that. I only described the Problem with the Printer Concept/Workflow that is used in Ubuntu. In my opinion this is one Issue, I'm not able to get what is working in Background and what is working how in Background. I'm not familiar with the responsibility in the deep of your developing. In my opinion I don't have to. I barley able to manage to report in this strange and absolute not intuitive Web surface (see also [Bug 1765667] ). I like Ubuntu, but not that much that I would learn to develop some apps. So please do this for me. I'm wondering also that you allow accepting Bugs to this package but are not able to send it further to the correct address. Maybe there is a need of a Feature Request for a better Work-flow in this reporting tool 😉 .

I have problems on the VM in the company, because after system startup masses of printer messages appear and annoy me. I also have the problem that I am no longer able to find the printer I would need in the whole series of other unwanted printers. It would be easier if I only had to use the default printer, but unfortunately this is not the case. Another problem is adding a printer: It is easy to obtain the IP address of the printer. In the Add dialog there is a text in the search bar that says that I could insert an IP address. But that doesn't work. I need to go to "additional printer settings". Here I can add an IP address, but it must be an address starting with "ipp://"? Why do I have to do this? IP address is IP address, The program should find the protocol that it needs itself! Then I have to choose HPLIB and two AppSocket. For a printer that wasn't supported, I first had to enter the printer details and scroll through a shitty long list of printers and research that a Cannon iR is a Cannon Image Runner. In the end I had to download a ppd file from canon. (This was an adventure of its own, which has nothing to do with Linux). Now I have a printer that works and has been renamed with special text to get it to the top of the big list of unwanted printers in the system.
