Bug ID: 488097
Summary: Search button of "Set up a Printer Connection" wizard
misbehaves
Classification: Applications
Product: systemsettings
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_printer_manager
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: m.lince...@gmail.com
CC: noeero...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When using the "Add Printer" wizard from the system settings "Printers", the
user is prompted to insert a printer's address. Near the "Address" field, there
is a search button. Pressing such button seems not to produce any action in
most cases.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open system settings -> Printer
2. Click on Add Printer
3. Wait for the "Unable to automatically discover any printing devices"
3. Insert a printer address (or not) and press the search button.
OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens.
But if the address is set to "ipp://" or some other "prefix://" the search
returns the existing configured printers, even if they don't appear to match
the search criterion.
EXPECTED RESULT
Pressing the search button returns some kind of answer if nothing is found.
Likewise, it should not return printers that do not match the search button.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora 40
KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.2.0
Qt Version: 6.7.1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
- oddly, the "Add Printer" feature opens a pop-up window, while the "Add Group"
and "Configure Print Server" features just "slide" the current system settings
panel to the wizard;
- the wizard crashes very frequently, I will issue another bug if I can get
useful crash reports.
