Public bug reported:
https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/36845
Affects: gnome-cups-manager (Ubuntu)
Severity: Normal
Priority: (none set)
Status: Unconfirmed
Description:
When clicking on "New Printer", or choosing Printer -> Add Printer,
there's a long delay (ca 8 seconds on a 2x3.0 Pentium) before the "Add a
Printer" window shows up. There is no indication that anything is going
on, and plenty of time to start wonder and double-click again and again,
which 1) slows the progress even further 2) ends up in several "Add a
Printer" windows 3) possibly crashes (bug #36592).
The cause seems at least partly to be the communication with cupsd,
downloading information about all available printer drivers (this seems
unnecessary to me at this point).
