Bug ID: 439318
Summary: Automatically, but removed discovered printers
reappear instantly again
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.22.2
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_printer_manager

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Hey guys, the printer manager automatically discovered printers in my network
(which is great), but doesn't use the correct driver by default (which is not
so great), but the worst thing is that every time I remove the printer (by
pressing on "remove printer"), the printer just reappears again, bloating my
printer menu with printers I can't use, since they don't work correctly / of
printers I don't use.
Even automatically recognized printers should stay removed, as they could
easily be re-added when needed and it's just confusing that they reappear and
might lead to confusion on what printer to use for an inexperienced user (the
badly configured driver is a different story here)
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. have a printer in the network that can be discovered
2. remove it from the printer list
3. wait for half a second
OBSERVED RESULT
the removed printer reappears
EXPECTED RESULT
the removed printer stays removed
