In Edgy it appears that the cups usb backend is not working anymore, resulting in only one printer entry in gnome-cups-manager from the hplip backend. Running the following command gives no output: $ /usr/lib/cups/backend/usb I seriously doubt this is caused by the newer HPLIP in Edgy, this looks more like a bug in cupsys. In attachment you find the output of command lpinfo -v which shows that CUPS only detects my printer with the hp backend on Edgy, the usb backend is not present. Perhaps this is a temporarly breakage since Edgy is still in heavy development. How can people with non HP printers configure their usb printers on Edgy? Therefore I think the 2 detected printer entries in gnome-cups-manager are necessary, but a user should be able to see a clear difference between similar entries and if a printer that works with the hplip backend is detected it should prefer this entry by selecting it by default. -- Duplicate printers listed when adding HP printer https://launchpad.net/bugs/32302 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
