** Description changed:
Printer is Canon iP7250, CUPS version is 2.2.10, Ubuntu 19.04
(2019-02-03 10:50).
In Printers panel, I can see it being present without the need to add it
- which is great.
But I don't see it as an option to print to in GTK print dialogue, I
can't select it as default printer from that Printers panel (that option
is there in the dropdown menu when I click the cogwheel - but it doesn't
seem to do anything - not even mark it as selected).
Clicking on Printing options I get a blank window with Test Page button
at the top - which doesn't seem to do anything.
Sometimes clicking on Printer details (when it's a second time?) crashes
the application.
After the crash it's no longer visible, but Add new printer restores it
- although it then says it searches for drivers and says it had failed
adding the printer.
When it doesn't crash, clicking on Printer details shows
"Address: Canon iP7200 series._ipp._tcp.local:631
Driver: Canon iP7200 Series"
Clicking in the screen on select from database, and selecting Canon
Pixma iP7250 CUPS+Gutenprint
Enables a normal Printing Options dialogue (i.e. not completely empty as
before) - but the test page still doesn't print. It's says the printers
state is stopped, and localhost:631 says the printer is pointing to
file:///dev/null
On 18.04 I can print to this printer fine after manually selecting this
getenprint driver or using
lp -d Canon_iP7200_series <file name>
Without the need for any drivers installation, however, the Printers panel
doesn't add it properly there either (in the automatic way). In this version of
Ubuntu, even the
lp -d Canon_iP7200_series <file name> command doesn't work (says lp: No such
file or directory)
Also driverless doesn't return anything (it says
ipp://411824000000.local:631/ipp/print on Ubuntu 18.04)
And lpstat -e only occasionally reports seeing the printer (it works
consistently on 18.04).
+ Going to additional printer settings... and clicking on adding an ipp
+ printer with the device URI ipp://411824000000.local:631/ipp/print
+ (which I know from 18.04 by typing driverless) and selecting the
+ gutenprint driver for Canon Pixma iP7250 does work and prints the test
+ page.
+
+ But if I didn't know that URI (which I could not see using driverless on
+ this vesion of Ubuntu) - I wouldn't have been able to add my printer.
+ This is even a worse experience than in 18.04 - and the experience there
+ was bad enough (as described in
+ https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/system-config-
+ printer/+bug/1815307)
