Bug Description

Binary package hint: kdeadmin

My printer HP LaserJet1018 (black&white) is attached to Linux box running CUPS.

I tried the new printer configuration interface.
Printer works and prints BUT swaps black and white! (received white text on black background when printing PDF, very bad)
every action on the printer is redirected to my print server (which returns error - remote administration is disabled)
 => cannot be deleted or modified (not in the tool, not in the web interface)

observed: printer was set to "remote printing driver"
should be: "HP laserjet1018(foo2zjs)"

I "solved" it by deleting the printer in /etc/cups/printers.conf and adding it via web interface

Thanks for looking at my issue

This is still present in latest lucid beta. Since there is 8 days left till release I wonder if there is anything I can do since this is still a major issue. From my perspective this is the only thing lacking in lucid.
