Furthermore: A general comment from the CUPS author regarding CUPS Browsing: http://www.cups.org/str.php?L4206 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Sorry, CUPS browsing is gone for good. There are too many problems with the CUPS browsing protocol in modern network environments to continue using/supporting it. CUPS 1.6 supports DNS-SD for automatic client discovery of printers, and future versions of CUPS will also support LDAP and SLP. Unfortunately, it may take some time for desktop toolkits to support dynamic printers, but the APIs are there in CUPS 1.6... --------------------------------------------------------------------- One must take some time and wait until desktop toolkits adapted to the CUPS 1.6 APIs and provide support for dynamic printers before one can use CUPS > 1.5.x in "real-world environments". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1061069 Title: CUPS 1.6 has major incompatible changes.
