There is no and there never was any kind of guarantee that automatic printer setup really works, see http://en.opensuse.org/YaST_Printer Some printer driver packages are installed by default other printer driver packages are not installed by default. If needed, the latter ones must be installed manually, see http://en.opensuse.org/YaST_Printer#Driver ------------------------------------------------------------------- If you do not find a driver description which looks reasonable for your printer model or a driver description which you expect to be available, you may click the "Driver Packages" button to check whether or not you may have to install more printer driver software packages. ------------------------------------------------------------------- This behaviour did not change. It works as intended. There is no bug. Therefore this bug report is "invalid". For openSUSE 11.4 printer driver packages have been cleaned up, see "Replacement of the cups-drivers package" at http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Printing Which printer driver packages are installed by default depends on the so called "patterns", see bnc#652292 According to https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=652292#c2 the package OpenPrinting-PPDs is installed by default and this one recommends all its sub-packages OpenPrintingPPDs-hpijs OpenPrintingPPDs-postscript OpenPrintingPPDs-ghostscript so that by default all those printer driver packages should be installed by default - except you tell the package installer (YaST/zypper) explicitly not to install also recommended packages. On my openSUSE 11.4 system I have all OpenPrintingPPDs packages installed so that it seems to work at least for me. In the end this bug report is "invalid" and furthermore it "worksforme". -- 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.
