Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: system-config-printer

[usability complaint]

In the CUPS config window ("Printer configuration - localhost") there's
a tree view at the left side, with "Server Settings" as first entry, and
"Local Printers" as second item, and "PDF" as third. Clicking on the
"Local Printers" entry _hides_ the PDF entry, which is not what I
expected (in Nautilus, clicking on a parent item of a tree displays the
clicked item's children in the main window).

I think it would be more consistent if a single-click on the "Local
Printers" item would display some (maybe meaningless :) info on the
right side (maybe a detailed list of all local printers, with icon for
every printer?). Double-clicking on the "Local Printers" item should
collapse the list of local printers. This seems to be the way Nautilus
handles such items. Maybe there's also an entry in Gnome HIG for this?
