Bug Description
If I click Add printer I get the selection dialogue, choose the network printer type and click next. I then get the driver selection screen, but I can't click Add. Also the input is messed up - if you click on name it drops you to the screen behind the window; to select the name you must click further down the screen and then tab back up to the name field.

I used sudo system- config- printers from terminal and it worked without any issues. I suggest replacing the current printer adding process with that one as it seems much more robust currently.
