Bug ID: 455798
Summary: Network printer missing in the print dialog of KDE
apps, while available and working in the system
settings and all non-KDE apps
Product: print-manager
Version: 22.04.2
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dantt...@gmail.com
Reporter: thebluequa...@mailo.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Network printer missing from the print dialogue of all KDE apps, while
available and working in system settings and all non-KDE apps. Using the
default driverless module for HP Laserjet Professional (1109w model), cups
filters 1.27.4
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect to the same network as the printer. Open system settings and go to
printers section to make sure the printer is detected (with the default,
driverless module) and ready. It's also possible to confirm this from the
printers plasma applet.
2. Now open a document to print in any of the KDE apps, including Okular,
Gwenview, Kolourpaint, digiKam (the ones I personally tested) or any other.
Choose print option and look for the network printer in the print dialogue. The
printer is missing.
3. To confirm this is an issue related to KDE, open any document in a non-KDE
application (I tried LibreOffice, Firefox, GIMP, and QOwnNotes) and select the
print option. The printer is available in those apps and works as expected.
OBSERVED RESULT
KDE apps do not list a network printer that is available and working properly
in the print dialog. At the same time, the printer does show up in the printers
section of system settings, and all non-KDE apps list it in available printers
and can use it without any problems.
EXPECTED RESULT
The list of available printers should be identical in the print dialog of KDE
apps to the printers available in system settings and all non-KDE apps running
on the same machine.
