This issue is a duplicate of bug#959801 and a duplicate of our internal SLES12 bug#970969 "yast2-printer: accepting printer announcements only from local network (@LOCAL) is no longer supported since CUPS >= 1.6" that reads (excerpts): -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ... you have selected "Accept printer announcement from CUPS server" with the "General Setting" to "accept from all host is the local network". Accepting printer announcements only from the local network (@LOCAL) is no longer supported since CUPS >= 1.6. When you click the "Details" button on that "Error" popup you get some rather technical low-level information what is no longer supported. It works (at least for me) when you select "Accept printer announcement from CUPS server" with the "General Setting" to "accept all announcements from anywhere". Because we also provide traditional CUPS 1.5.4 for SLE12 via the "legacy" module, cf. https://www.suse.com/releasenotes/x86_64/SUSE-SLES/12/ the YaST printer module in SLE12 works both for traditional CUPS up to 1.5.4 and also for newer CUPS >= 1.6 In the end the issue is a usability issue in yast2-printer that it does not adapt its dialogs according to the actually installed CUPS version so that only things that actually work are selectable by the user. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Since a long time I do no longer have the time to actively work on yast2-printer. Therefore I do no longer maintain yast2-printer for openSUSE: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ osc maintainer yast2-printer Defined in project: YaST:Head bugowner of yast2-printer : - maintainer of yast2-printer : cwh, sh-sh-sh, jdsn, locilka, mvidner, varkoly, lslezak, snwint, jreidinger, aschnell, jsrain, mfilka, ancorgs, yast-team, IGonzalezSosa, shundhammer, teclator, group:factory-maintainers ------------------------------------------------------------------------- See also http://lists.opensuse.org/yast-devel/2015-03/msg00044.html In the foreseeable future there is nothing what I could do here. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 959801 *** -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
