GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 325982
hplip printers cannot be configured
Last modified: 2009-04-30 05:39:20 UTC
Hi! hplip printers require a special URI (e. g. hp:/net/deskjet_5800?ip=10.0.0.160), but this cannot be configured with gnome-cups-add. Of all the choices in the 'Printer type' selection, 'Cups printer' is closest, but it always prepends an ipp:// before the URL. Please see https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=19513 for all details and discussion.
Moving all gnome-cups-manager bugs to new product. Filter on Kjartan's spring cleaning.
Let's close this, nobody uses g-c-m any more, and it's unmaintained.
