Bug Description
Binary package hint: cups
My network printer has had its IP change due to me reconfiguring my network. I have a 9.10 laptop which hasn't been informed of this fact, so still has the old IP address. I went to print to it, thinking I'd get some kind of message about the printer being unavailable but instead got a notification popup saying:-
"Printer 'Genicom-
I can only guess at what this means. The same message appears if I hover over the printer icon. Now of course I can "fix" this by changing the IP address of the printer, but the message is a touch obscure. Indeed, one nice thing is simply changing the IP address in the admin screen results in my output appearing - which is very nice :)

I've got the exact same error. My printer (Samsung ML-1640) is connected to an Airport Extreme Base station (router made by Apple). But I cannot change the ip address because it's the ip address of the router.
