Printing via CUPS still takes ages to start

[Rainer Weninger]

The printer now prints colour again, but it is still extreme slow. When I print a page, it takes about 5 minutes to start. Again this is on all Ubuntu 23.04 but not on 22.10.

As you see in the logs, I am up to date and still have the issue.

[Till Kamppeter (till-kamppeter)]

The file Dependencies.txt, automatically attached to this bug report when you created it, shows that you ahve still the old cups-browsed 2.0b4 installed and not the new 2.0rc1. Only the latter contains my fix for your bug.

Please update your system again. Perhaps the new cups-browsed has already arrived.
