Gnome cups manager destroy my config

[Étienne BERSAC]

Binary package hint: gnome-cups-manager

Hello,

In order to have SANE hpaio backend correctly probe the my networked HP printer, i have to configure the printer with the DeviceURI set to hp-makeuri 192.168.X.Y result. e.g. i have an OfficeJet 7140xi networked device. I set DeviceURI in /etc/cups/printers.conf to hp:/net/officejet_7100_series?ip=192.168.0.2 . But if i open gnome-cups-manager, the device URI is set to ipp://hp:/net/officejet_7100_series%3Fip%3D192.168.0.2 .That end to an unusable device with sane.

gnome-cups-manager must be able to handle "hp" or "manual" device UI. A wrapper to hp-makeuri would be nice.

Also, gnome-cups-manager is very very slow.

Étienne.

What do you mean by this? Does it take a long time to start gnome-cups-manager?

Opening the printer properties dialog is very long.

We might rename this bug for this one :)

It is not a good idea to file a bug report with 2 different problems in it. This makes it difficult for people to comment on one of your problems. The first problem has already been reported into our bug tracking system.
Please open a new bug report for your second problem: gnome-cups-manager beeing to slow. Please indicate how long it takes to load. What is a very long time: seconds, minutes, hours?
