Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: system-config-printer
If a network printer is inaccessible in a way such that dns doesn't fail
and the connection isn't refused, system-config-printer hangs for
several minutes while starting up or modifying that printer.
For example, if a laptop user has a printer ipp://192.168.1.123, but
then tries to use the laptop on another network, system-config-printer
will hang while starting up. Similarly, using something like
ipp://example.com where example.com isn't actually reachable but does
resolve can result in the same behaviour.
This is not a duplicate of bug #165197.
