Public bug reported: Running Hardy Alpha 5
Selecting a default printer under Preferences -> Default Printer does not do anything. Going to Administration -> Printing shows that no default printer has been set. Opening gedit and going to File -> Print doesn't reflect a default printer being said either (PDF and PX-A620 show in the printer list and neither is selected). If there is supposed to be a difference between default printer in the two apps ("Default Printer" and "Printing"), then it needs to be made clear (for example: if Preferences -> Default Printer only applies to the user, then it needs to say that. If Administration -> Printing applies system wide, then it also needs to say that). If the default printer in "Default Printer" and "Printing" should be the same, then what is the purpose of "Default Printer"? It would just be redundant. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Preferences -> Default Printer is useless https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/196538 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
