I have also exactly 10 network printers and I have tried hard to get system-config-printer to freeze. I even have introduced a timeout for the network scan or have changed code so that the results of the network scan are not put together nicely. It always works for me. So I ask you to do the following:
Run in a terminal window system-config-printer --debug do all needed actions to get system-config-printer getting stuck, and post the output in the terminal window here. Run also in a terminal window and post all output here: lpinfo --include-schemes='dnssd,snmp' -v lpinfo --include-schemes='dnssd,snmp' --timeout=30 -v ** Changed in: system-config-printer (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: system-config-printer (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium -- printer configuration dialog hangs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/552398 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
