[Bug 1441423] Re: printers not listed
I have the same problem. I can't find anything that allows the use of a remote printer (i.e. one shared by cups on another machine on the network). Local system is cups 2.02, remote is cups 1.7.2 (Ubuntu 14.04). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1441423 Title: printers not listed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/1441423/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

setting to shared makes the local printers visible. however, networked printers are not visible in system-config-printer (although visible in cups 2.0.2 webgui) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1441423 Title: printers not listed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/1441423/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1441423] Re: printers not listed
Your problem I have also discovered on my machines and reported upstream as https://www.cups.org/str.php?L4628 For the time being do the following: If you do not want to share any of your local printers, turn off printer sharing via the Server settings in system-config-printer or via the cupsctl --no-share-printers command. If you want to share at least one of your printers, set all printers individually to shared, even the ones you do not intend to access from a remote machine. In both cases all printers will get listed in print dialogs and system- config-printer then. ** Changed in: system-config-printer (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed ** Changed in: system-config-printer (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = High ** Package changed: system-config-printer (Ubuntu) = cups (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1441423 Title: printers not listed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/1441423/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1441423] Re: printers not listed
i spoke too soon. i got a pc working somehow, on a laptop, i did the same setup and conf and nothing works. 1 if Shared is unchecked, printer is visible in cups webgui; it does not list in system-config-printer and print dialogs. if printer is added using system-config-printer with Shared unchecked, it will disappear after Apply/Save. 2 network/remote printer with raw queue, cups will always force Shared unchecked; said printer disappear from the list. 3 network/remote printer with specified printer driver (rather than raw queue), Shared can be checked; said printer appear on the list, however, print jobs will result in filter failure due to double conversion? suggestion is to use raw queue (see point 2) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1441423 Title: printers not listed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/system-config-printer/+bug/1441423/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

hi Alfred, thanks for the suggestion. have been relying on scp the file and lpr on remote. now, i think i got it working? attached cupsd.conf. some sites that i looked at before i got it working http://chschneider.eu/linux/server/cups.shtml http://askubuntu.com/questions/345083/how-do-i-disable-automatic-remote- printer-installation for the filter failure on remote printer, read in some mailing lists about using raw queue to avoid double conversion on both client and server side? although been doing same setup on adding remote printer on previous versions of cups and everything was ok. on cups webgui, the remote printer's make and model is indicated as Remote Printer. remote cups server 1.6.1 / ubuntu 12.10 client cups server 2.0.2 / lubuntu 15.04 ** Attachment added: cupsd.conf https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/system-config-printer/+bug/1441423/+attachment/4392757/+files/cupsd.conf -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1441423 Title: printers not listed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/system-config-printer/+bug/1441423/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi quiricada, I wonder if un-ticking the view - discovered printers can resolve showing duplicated printers?

[Bug 1441423] Re: printers not listed
after stopping cups, i rm printers.conf and deleted the network printers entry from printers.conf.O restarted cups using cups webgui, manually added the network printers with Share field checked. all the printers as seen in cups webgui now appears in ubuntu print dialogs and in system-config-printer. 1 something to do with the Share field? 2 i've manually changed the Share from No to Yes in printers.conf (after stopping cups), when cups is restarted after the edit, the Share is magically forced back to No, maybe Spock did it. 3 the reason am trying to un-share the network printer is that with share on, the same network printer is shown multiple times by the wonderful network discovery. (by the source printer and from all the pc that shared it!) 4 is there some way to remove/detach a network printer in cups webgui? if i remove a printer in cups webgui, it redirects to the source printer webgui and if you have enough rights, the source printer is deleted! i just want to remove/detach the network printer from my pc, not remove the printer totally from the network. 5 redirects after modifying printers does not work, results in blank screen. is this cups or firefox problem? eg. http://localhost:631/admin/?OP=redirectURL=/printers/llama 6 now that i can see all the printers, i still can't print to the network printers, it's indicating Filter failure when printing a pdf file to an epson lx-310 dot matrix. it was working before upgrading ubuntu/cups. saw Alfred comment, so am not the only one with this problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1441423 Title: printers not listed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/system-config-printer/+bug/1441423/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1441423] Re: printers not listed
Same problem as quiricada says in #8, if I un-share a printer, it cannot be listed in 'system-config-printer'. I think this happens after I upgrade from ubuntu 14.10 to 15.04 at Apr. 24. But today I just find it because I want to print something, but cannot find any printers listed in print dialog. View menu : 'Discovered Printers' is checked If I un-check Publish shared printers ... in system-config-printer - server - settings, this problem disappears (unshared printers can be found).

In system-config-printer you can turn on and off listing of discovered printers via the View menu.
