Yes, I think improved wording is quite necessary. Right now I see a warning that says "Not published" "See server settings". That message is simply baffling.
First, what does "published" mean? Does it mean shared? Second, what is "server settings"? I couldn't find any control panel called server settings. I guess it's referring to the menu Server, with the item Settings, but that's pretty obscure isn't it? How about changing the message to "Won't be shared until 'Enable Printer Sharing' is checked"? And put a button right next to it that would bring up the Preferences dialog. I like the idea of graying "Shared" out when sharing is turned off, but right next to it needs to be a message or a button telling how to enable it. -- [Hardy] system-config-printer should show more clearly whether printers are shared https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/137581 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
