Package: cups-browsed Version: 1.17.8-1 Severity: normal Tags: upstream
I am working on an unstable machine: cups-browsed 1.17.8-1 and cups 2.2.4-7. There is a single local queue, pcl. On the network there is a jessie server (cups 1.7.5-11+deb8u1) advertising two queues and an IPP printer (an Envy 4500) with AirPrint on. With cups-browsed started 'lpstat -a' shows dotmatrix_desktop accepting requests since Wed 04 Oct 2017 17:50 BST ENVY4500 accepting requests since Wed 04 Oct 2017 17:50 BST LaserJet_300_desktop accepting requests since Wed 04 Oct 2017 17:50 BST pcl accepting requests since Wed 04 Oct 2017 17:50 BST This is what I would expect. (desktop is the remote print server). Stopping cups (which stops cups-browsed) and looking at a print dialog in Firefox or gedit I see dotmatrix LaserJet-300 print Not quite what I expected (I get this on jessie and stretch, too). print is the Envy 4500. In addition, it hangs at "Getting printer information" when highlighted and shows "Rejecting jobs" when not selected. Two bugs in GTK? Now for the cups-browsed part. I start it and a dialog has dotmatrix dotmatrix_desktop ENVY4500 LaserJet-300 LaserJet_300_desktop pcl print Is this duplication of GTK discovered printers/print queues supposed to happen? I would think not; it does not happen on jessie. Regards, Brian.
