Thank you for the step by step procedure jrgsampaio. I just followed it with the trivial modification to edit cupsd.conf instead of cups.conf.
Unfortunately, I can't test it until I next travel to a conference with discoverable printers on the network, so I have no idea if it worked yet. I definitely wish this were easier. It would make sense to have an explicit "find printers" capability, followed by a checkbox list to confirm which ones you actually want to add. Having them automatically appear in your list (and stay there, long after you have disconnected from the network where those printers existed!) is not helpful at all, and in fact makes it too easy to send jobs to the wrong printer, which can be be a very serious problem if you have sensitive material in your printout. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1753509 Title: avahi-daemon adds/installs every printer on network To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups-filters/+bug/1753509/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
