@fargoth, sorry for that comment. I was wrong. What got actually fixed was another thing which I observed during the investigations for this bug.
Therefore I have re-opened https://github.com/OpenPrinting/cups-filters/issues/22 Please see my comments #5 and #6. -- 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/1815307 Title: ipp printer isn't shown automatically - adding it errors with a CUPS internal error Status in cups package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: System: Ubuntu 18.04 system-config-printer version: 1.5.11-1ubuntu printer: Canon iP7250 I expect to be able to see the printer in the panel just as 'lpstat -l -e' or 'driverless' can see them, without the need to especially add a new printer. And if I do need to add it (don't see why that should be the case, but still), I expect that choosing the printer's name under network would result in adding the printer. What happened instead: Canon iP7250 isn't shown in the Printers panel, clicking on add and expanding the network options - it is shown, but when trying to add it (either driverless IPP, LPD via DNS-SD or IPP via DNS-SD) it gives an error about CUPS internal error. `$ lpstat -l -e` gives `Canon_iP7200_series network none ipp://Canon%20iP7200%20series._ipp._tcp.local/` So the system does see it, and `lp -d Canon_iP7200_series /etc/nsswitch.conf` does print (and for a minute the printer is shown in the Printers panel - but then disappears). I can add it by *not* clicking on the printer's name under Network, but rather, click on ipp printer and manually choose Canon -> iP7200 -> CUPS+Gutenprint driver (and not the recommended driverless option - which, if I choose results in that same cryptic error I get when trying to add the printer by clicking on it, as described above).
