Hello all, I am experiencing a lot of trouble with the "add printer" functionality. I am on a large network also, running Maverick 64bits (in French, so the exact translation may be inaccurate) and with latest updates. The "scan for lan printer" option is inactivated.
When I click "add new printer", I do not know why, but the dialog get stuck if I wait too long (let say 5/7 sec). It seems that the backend is scanning for the network printer, even if I did not ask to (I know the name of the printer). So what I tried is to add the printer "as fast as I could". I am really not asking for this functionality, but I do not know how to inactivate it. It seems that the dialog scans ALWAYS the network. I give some log below, which shows that the net scanning is experiencing some packet errors. In the next dialog, asking to choose the printer type, same phenomena: get frozen if I wait too long to make my choice (the "looking for drivers" dialog). It seems that the part that freezes the first dialog is still running, and possibly freeze the backend somehow (while I guess the scanning should stop once the printer is chosen). Again I tried to add a generic printer "as fast as I could". And again for the drivers type (say PCL 6e generic). Ok then I have a dummy printer, that I am able to reconfigure somehow. I restarted avahi, same things occur. Here is the log just after restarting avahi. The dialog open during the network exchanges was the "looking for drivers" (I killed it after 30mn).
