Package: gnome-cups-manager Version: 0.31-1.1 Severity: normal It is impossible to change the name/description of the printers using gnome-cups-manager. Although there is a "Description" field in the printer properties, this is not saved when changed by the user. The name of the printer can't be changed at all.
As you can imagine, this is pretty annoying. We use 4 different HP printers here, which use the same printer driver, and are therefore named identically by gnome-cups-manager. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.13-rc6 Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages gnome-cups-manager depends on: ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.17-1 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libatk1.0-0 1.10.3-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libbonobo2-0 2.10.1-1 Bonobo CORBA interfaces library ii libbonoboui2-0 2.10.1-2 The Bonobo UI library ii libc6 2.3.6-1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libcupsys2 1.1.23-15 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii libgconf2-4 2.12.1-9 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglade2-0 1:2.5.1-2 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.8.6-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome-keyring0 0.4.6-2 GNOME keyring services library ii libgnome2-0 2.12.0.1-5 The GNOME 2 library - runtime file ii libgnomecanvas2-0 2.12.0-2 A powerful object-oriented display ii libgnomecups1.0-1 0.2.2-1 GNOME library for CUPS interaction ii libgnomecupsui1.0-1c2a 0.31-1.1 UI extensions to libgnomecups ii libgnomeui-0 2.12.1-1 The GNOME 2 libraries (User Interf ii libgnomevfs2-0 2.12.2-6 GNOME virtual file-system (runtime ii libgtk2.0-0 2.8.12-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libice6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 Inter-Client Exchange library ii liborbit2 1:2.12.4-1 libraries for ORBit2 - a CORBA ORB ii libpango1.0-0 1.10.3-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpopt0 1.7-5 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii libsm6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System Session Management ii libx11-6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System protocol client li ii libxml2 2.6.23.dfsg.1-0.1 GNOME XML library ii xlibs 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System client libraries m ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-9 compression library - runtime Versions of packages gnome-cups-manager recommends: ii gksu 1.3.6-1 graphical frontend to su -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
