This is not a support request. It's a request to restore functionality
that was present in Maverick to the printing config tool in Natty.
However, I can see how the original wording sounds a lot like that... so
I've changed it.
** Description changed:
Binary package hint: unity
- In non-unity Ubuntu, I can configure printing quite easily by hitting
- the Admin-Printer menu. This is kinda important because there are some
- things I have to set there to be able to connect to network shared
- printers on other hosts in the office.
+ In previous versions of Ubuntu, I can configure printing quite easily by
+ hitting the Administration/Printer menu. This is kinda important
+ because there are some things I have to set there to be able to connect
+ to network shared printers on other hosts in the office.
However, I can not find any real printer config tool in Natty running
Unity. The best I can find is a "Printing" app that lets me add
printers that I already know about. There's no "Show printers shared on
- other hosts" option, so I can't scan the office network and actually
- print anything.

Sadly, this kinda impacts my work and makes me less productive. So was
the gnome print config removed? Or is it hidden somewhere that I don't
- know about?
