The manufacturer name "HP LaserJet" leads to confusion because now there are two manufacturers listed in model selection lists of printer setup tools (e.g. in the CUPS web frontend): One is "HP LaserJet" where the user only finds Omi driver PPDs and the other one is "HP" where all the other drivers are. The result is that users often use the Omi driver for HP LaserJets which neither results the best possible quality nor does the Omni driver currently work at all because of bug #429345. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
