I know there is more, but someone has to say that :-)

* Tabs make sense where user understands tab-labels for the first sight.
* Tabs make sense for doing different tasks (configuring different
  things) on every single tab.
* Unification is the way to go, if we have tabs there, user has to still
  click through every single one of them to be sure.

Agree.

The single list would be good for one printer and for 100. Same set of
buttons.

BTW, Johannes has some ideas that IMHO are more promissing, than currently
discussed UI design. Look at one of threads "printer module". The text
included in line with buttons can explain what buttons can't. List can be
expanded to include all printers, so there is no need for 2 lists. Buttons
can be grayed out (deactivated) if they don't fit printer setup.

I started to dislike tabs after network setup got them and I had to go trough
all of them to find what I need for static setup.
