[Bug 1529939] [NEW] BJNP Canon network printer no longer auto-detected

 

Public bug reported:

Up to Ubuntu 15.04, I only needed to install the cups-backend-bjnp
package, and my (wifi-connected) Canon Pixma MG5250 would then show up
automatically in the Add printers/Network printers dialog. This is no
longer the case in 15.10 -- I need to manually add it by entering
bnjp://my.printers.ip.address. This bug is present both on Ubuntu and
Ubuntu Gnome.

** Affects: unity-control-center (Ubuntu)
