pitti, are you sure that Jockey does only the OpenPrinting driver request and no full system hardware scan when called by system-config- printer?

A progress bar is shown, and continues to beat back and forth, but the operation takes so long that the user ends up cancelling the process. One month early I watched another user do precisely the same cancellation at the same point while adding the same network printer on the same network. Ideally the progress could be changed from a bouncing bar, to a progressing bar. This would give a sense of competition, that is lacking in the bouncing bar. It would probably even be tolerable to have a completion bar that times at the end. This would replace an unknown with a known.
