Bug#846623: gnome-control-center: g-c-c does not display the raw queues of remote CUPS servers

[Brian Potkin]

Source: gnome-control-center
Version: 1:3.22.1-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream


The dnssd backend of CUPS is run in discovery mode as part of g-c-c's
effort to locate printers and print queues. It has no problem in
discovering raw queues on remote servers but g-c-c does not know about
them when it comes to adding a printer.

There are legitimate uses for such queues. For example, a Word document
sent to one can be converted to a PDF and sent on to another print queue
to be printed.

Please consider making remote raw print queues visible via g-c-c.

Regards,

Brian.
