Bug ID: 478495
Summary: Printer manager doesn't show IP address of printer
Classification: Applications
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.27.9
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_printer_manager
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: 98johndy...@gmail.com
CC: dantt...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
In the printer settings, there is no information on the IP address/hostname of
the printer. Since printers often have a web page for modifying the settings,
this would be useful information to show in the printer settings. I believe
macOS does show a link to the web-page for a printer in their settings.
To be more user friendly, along with the IP address of the printer, one could
detect if the printer has a web-page and if so, show a clickable link to it.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add a new printer in systemsettings
2. View the printer
OBSERVED RESULT
no IP address or hostname.
EXPECTED RESULT
IP address or hostname of the printer, or an http link to the web page.
