Dude, this bug is 6 years old. It should be marked obsolete, not invalid. Since there isn't an "obsolete" it should be "won't fix" or "Fix Released".
Invalid means that it wasn't a bug. It does seem to be fixed in 14.04. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to cups in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/570475 Title: search for network printer proceeds with no feedback Status in cups package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Binary package hint: cups Click on System->Administration->Printing. Click on Add. Hit the + sign next to Network Printer, now wait...it's finding the network printers. But it's not saying anything, so you might for example click on "Find Network Printers" but nothing will happen...but in time, your network printers will pop up. So while it's searching but not displaying, it ought to have a status message or something so that you know it's searching. This is in Lucid Beta 2, but I think it's been this way for quite a while. I'm currently using CUPS 1.4.3-1.
