Bug Description
Binary package hint: unity
In previous versions of Ubuntu, I can configure printing quite easily by hitting the Administration/
However, I can not find any real printer config tool in Natty running Unity. The best I can find is a "Printing" app that lets me add printers that I already know about. There's no "Show printers shared on other hosts" option similar to functionality that was present in Maverick, so I can't scan the office network and actually print anything.
Sadly, this kinda impacts my work and makes me less productive. So was the gnome print config removed? Or is it hidden somewhere that I don't know about, or was this functionality removed?
