Title:
20.04 - Printer Change Driver window becomes unresponsive
Status in system-config-printer package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
User yetanotherbryan from Ubuntu Forums has reported on this since May
2020, and I've also experience this bug this week when I upgraded to
20.04.
Unable to Change Printer Driver in Ubuntu 20.04
(https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2444046)
I'm trying to get my printer setup on a fresh
install of 20.04. In setttings, when I add my
network printer (Samsung M287X), it is found
and installs a default driver. I am able to print
normally. I trying to swap out the printer driver
("Additional Printer Settings" > "Properties" >
"Make and Model -Change") to install alternative
drivers. This is necessary to enable some features
such as two sided printing. When I click "Change"
it attempts to search for drivers but comes
unresponsive. This is something that I have done
many times on previous versions of ubuntu. Anybody
have an idea of what is happening here?
Thanks,
Bryan
