Public bug reported:
Affects: gnome-cups-manager (Ubuntu)
Severity: Normal
Priority: (none set)
Status: Unconfirmed
Description:
I try to configure a printer using the PPD file provided by the printer
manufacturer. The PPD file uses a NickName containing a "/" (slash).
Adding the printer silently fails. I can choose the printer driver in
the GUI (where I can see the slash in the listed name), but after
clicking Apply and thus closing the Add Printer window, the printer does
not show up in the Printers window.
If I manually edit the PPD file and replace the slash with a "-"
(hyphen), I can add the printer without problems.
