show the bug and version informations
I am wondering why my KDELibs-Version 4.13.3 is not available here in the
version-field of that bug-report. Can you explain?
As you can see on the screenshot I am using Kubuntu 14.04.03 LTS in a German
version.
To describe the bug please see the red mark on the screenshot:
When adding a new printer I can select with a checkbox if this printer should
be published (my own translation) to other systems.
As I learned in the german ubuntu forum this checkbox only affects the CUPS
system - nothing more.
It doesn't touch SAMBA. I was quite shocked to see that all my printers are
available in the network rather I deactivated your checkbox.
This situatin lower the security and disinform the user.
Minimal solution: Modify the description of the checkbox and add the info about
CUPS. Something like "publish the printer with CUPS".
Nicer solution: Think about what your gui means for the user and what should
the gui affect technicaly. So your gui could check for the SAMBA printer
settings, too. Maybe there are more systems available how to publish printers
in a network - you should check for them, too.
If this is not possible for you be more specific in the description of that
checkbox.
