Description Sebastien Bacher 2011-10-12 12:31:33 UTC 
The bug concerns g-c-c 3.2.0 and has been reported on https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/871985

"It appears a patch was added to Gnome back in July that requires FirewallD to be running in order to add a network printer.
see: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/commits-list/2011-July/msg09761.html

This only appears to affect those using the Gnome 3 desktop environment... users wanting to use Gnome will encounter this. The specific error message is:
 "FirewallD is not running. Network printer detection needs services mdns, ipp, ipp-client and samba-client enabled on firewall.""


Is there any reason to assume that distributions not using firewalld will not be able to discover printer? The error message is suboptimal and assume that a firewall is in use which might not be the case, it also assume that firewalld is the standard firewall solution which is not the case either
