Bug ID: 510468
Summary: IPP Everywhere option should not be available for all
USB connected printers
Classification: Applications
Product: systemsettings
Version First 6.4.4
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_printer_manager
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
When configuring a USB direct connect printer and attempting to change the
driver after the printer has been configured, the driver select dialog allows
IPP Everywhere as an option. This option should not be available for USB
connected printers unless they support spec (7.1.4) IPP over USB.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Configure a print queue with USB direct connect, take recommended driver
2. Save
3. Edit the print queue, choose select driver, select IPP Everywhere
4. Apply change, CUPS will throw an error for invalid argument, inability to
make an IPP connection to the USB connected printer.
OBSERVED RESULT
We see an inline error message from CUPS, failing to assign the IPP Everywhere
driver.
EXPECTED RESULT
Technically, this is correct, but we should not allow the IPP Everywhere option
to be available for printers that do not support the spec (7.1.4) IPP over USB.
