[Bug 8125] Re: username for smb printer is not shown on printer properties
I think as soon as the patched version of the gnome-cups-manager is in Edgy we can close this bug. Patching CUPS wouls not only expose sensible data but also make CUPS too much patched, so that incompatibilities with other tools can happen. So I reject it for CUPS and leave it open only for the gnome-cups- manager. ** Changed in: cupsys (Ubuntu) Status: Needs Info = Rejected ** Also affects: gnome-cups-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed ** Changed in: gnome-cups-manager (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Ubuntu Printing Team Status: Unconfirmed = Confirmed -- username for smb printer is not shown on printer properties https://launchpad.net/bugs/8125 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 58403] Re: adding smb printer difficult on large networks
When it scans, it should simply not pop up any authentication windows (I do so in printerdrake in Mandriva). If it cannot obtain info (list of available printer shares) from a server without any authentication, it should skip the server. It can still ask for authentication if the user chooses one printer share from the scan result to set up a queue for it. So scanning can be still used when listing of resources is allowed by anonymous users but not printing. Or one only shows the server name (without printer share names) when a server needs authentication for listing of resources. Then the authentication is only popped up when the user chooses this server name as destination for his print queue. After that a list of the printing resources of this server could be shown, for the user choosing the real destination. -- adding smb printer difficult on large networks https://launchpad.net/bugs/58403 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 60576] Re: Adding LPD printer freezes gnome-cups-add
For easy discovering and addition of network printers use the new facilities of CUPS 1.2. Make sure that the SNMP backend is used (this is an SNMP network auto- scan tool, for sure exits after around 3 or 4 seconds): sudo ln -s /usr/lib/cups/backend-available/snmp /usr/lib/cups/backend/ (I suggest that this is set by default, on Mandriva it never broke anything for me and also no user complained about it) Then use the web interface of CUPS https://localhost:631/ and click on Administration. After some seconds your not yet configured network printers should be listed and you only need to click Add this printer and follow the instructions on the following screens. If asked for log in and password enter your log in and password (or of any privileged user). Or use the command line: sudo lpinfo -v to see the auto-detected URI of your printer and then sudo lpadmin -p queue name -E -v URI -P PPD file gnome-cups-manager is not maintained upstream any more, if someone here is still hacking on it, have a look at the source code of the SNMP backend of CUPS 1.2, or let the gnome-cups-manager simply call this backend instead of doing the dirty work by itself. Perhaps the web interface of CUPS should be listed in the Administration menu of the desktop. -- Adding LPD printer freezes gnome-cups-add https://launchpad.net/bugs/60576 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 25966] Re: Printer drivers for Brother
The PPD files for PostScript (BR-Script) printers are under GPL and therefore they can be redistributed. They are also available in the upstream foomatic-db package. The drivers for non-PostScript printers are redistributable but they are closed-source. So they disqualify to be in the main distro, but they can be added to some extra repository for non-free software without explicit agreement with Brother. See the license text by going to http://solutions.brother.com/linux/sol/printer/linux/lpr_drivers.html and clicking an arbitrary driver download link. The CUPS wrappers are under GPL again, but they are useless without the corresponding closed-source LPR driver. On a CUPS system it required to have both the CUPS wrapper and the appropriate LPR driver for the printer. If we do not have an appropriate repository for such packages we can only reject this report. -- Printer drivers for Brother https://launchpad.net/bugs/25966 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 59934] Re: since updating to edgy, HP Deskjet 600 is not detected at all
This looks like a kernel-level problem for me. All kernel modules for the parallel port are loaded (parport, parport_pc, and lp), but the printer's ID is not appearing in any of the /proc/sys/dev/parport/parport*/autoprobe* files. As you had this printer already working on your machine, I assume that the BIOS settings for your parallel port are correct for bi-directional access. -- since updating to edgy, HP Deskjet 600 is not detected at all https://launchpad.net/bugs/59934 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 56444] Re: Easy double-sided printing
This is an interesting feature request, but it cannot be assigned to one package. It needs to be implemented in the printing dialog. So currently you would have to suggest this separately to the KDE/Qt, GNOME/GTK, and some application folks (OpenOffice.org, Scribus, ...), but not to the package maintainers of this or any other Linux distribution. You should suggest this to the upstream developers. In the future it is planned to offer common printing dialogs linked to the applications vis tthe Portland interface (http://portland.freedesktop.org/), so you should probably also make your suggestion there. -- Easy double-sided printing https://launchpad.net/bugs/56444 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Can you add the printer with the web interface of CUPS? Go to http://localhost:631/ and click on Administration. If your printer or at least the first parallel port is shown, click on the appropriate Add this printer button and choose the model on the next screens. When asked for user name and password, enter your user name and your password. If your printer/the parallel port does not appear, click Add Printer at the top of the page and fill in the fields on the following screens.

[Bug 39465] Re: Samsung ML-1740 Not Listed
Moving to foomatic-db At first, if a printer is not listed in the gnome-cups-manager or any other printer setup tool, this is caused by the printer not being in the foomatic-db package on your installed system. Look up the printer on linuxprinting.org to see whether it is already added upstream. I have added this printer and other Samsung laser printers today. I also added the new SPL2 driver splix to the database. To fix this problem in Ubuntu it is only needed to update foomatic-db to the current snapshot and to add the splix driver. Then this printer will work perfectly out of the box. ** Changed in: cupsys (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: cupsys = foomatic-db -- Samsung ML-1740 Not Listed https://launchpad.net/bugs/39465 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 58908] Re: HP PSC 2110 printer PJL ENTER LANGUAGE=PCL3GUI
This is not a bug in Ubuntu. It is wrongly configured. What you are doing is to let the client convert the PostScript coming from the applications into PCL and this is sent to the server which assumes it to be plain text and tries to convert it to PCL again, and the result on the paper looks like if you open a PCL file with a text editor. In a network environment with CUPS the printer filters and drivers are always only on the server. The easiest should be to have the following lines in the server's /etc/cups/cupsd.conf: Browsing On BrowseAddress @LOCAL and to restart the CUPS daemon there. THe client's /etc/cups/cupsd.conf should contain: Listen *:631 Browsing On BrowseAllow @LOCAL BrowseDeny All BrowseOrder deny,allow Restart the CUPS daemin on the client(s), too. Remove your print queues for the PSC 2110 from your clients. Wait for 30 seconds and the server's print queue should automatically get visible on the clients.
