[Bug 570475] Re: search for network printer proceeds with no feedback

 

Dude, this bug is 6 years old. It should be marked obsolete, not
invalid. Since there isn't an "obsolete" it should be "won't fix" or
"Fix Released".

Invalid means that it wasn't a bug.

It does seem to be fixed in 14.04.

Title:
  search for network printer proceeds with no feedback

Status in cups package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: cups

  Click on System->Administration->Printing.
  Click on Add.
  Hit the + sign next to Network Printer, now wait...it's finding the network printers.  But it's not saying anything, so you might for example click on "Find Network Printers" but nothing will happen...but in time, your network printers will pop up.
  So while it's searching but not displaying, it ought to have a status message or something so that you know it's searching.

  This is in Lucid Beta 2, but I think it's been this way for quite a
  while.

  I'm currently using CUPS 1.4.3-1.
