Package: cupsys
Version: 1.2.1-2

After the upgrade, opened http://localhost:631/admin and checked
printers. Had trouble with printing test page. ( See bug # 373793) When
I tried to 'add printer' the steps did not include the Make/Manufacturer
page, instead went to the Model/Driver page . This didn't list the
correct driver for my printer, HP Business Inkjet 1000. I had to click
'browse' and find it, actually using the link, hplip, already in
/usr/share/cups/model. If I used the 'modify printer' option then the correct pages and drivers were displayed. I installed the cups-driver-gutenprint package , those drivers were picked up cups and displayed, however that package does not contain the correct driver for my printer. I have the hplip and hpijs packages installed (0.9.7-4 and 2.1.7+0.9.7-4). Everything worked correctly before upgrade. I decided to try removing the link to 'cups-included' and the other .ppd files in the /usr/share/cups/model directory and then the Make/Manufacturer page was displayed, with of course only hplip and raw as options. So apparently cups is recognizing my printer as a HP and just giving me the cups-included drivers, or gutenprint ones if installed, and ignoring the link, hplip, to the correct driver. It didn't do that before the upgrade. I just bought the printer a few months ago and had no problem installing it then. So I found a work around, but it is not right. I only have one physical printer, but have 3 installed, regular printing, grayscale and high quality, easier than opening the web interface and adjusting the printer settings, just choose the desired one from the menu. Cups should not skip the Make/Manufacturer page, which would give a HP user the HP and the HP (HPLIP) options, along with all the other makes. Cups is either lazy or trying to be too smart, but messes up.
Pkgs installed: cupsys, cups-bsd, cups-client, libcupsys2, foomatic-db, foomatic-db-engine, foomatic-db-hpijs, foomatic-filters, hplip, hpijs, hplip-ppds, openoffice.org, plus several others.

Dear bug submitter,

This bug was reported against a very old version of cups (older than
in the current stable Debian version "Etch"). About a year ago,
Martin-Eric Racine asked for feedback whether the bug still applied to
the current Debian Etch version, but we did not get any feedback. In
order to not keep around old, hardware-specific, and inactive bugs
around forever, I close this bug now.

Please report back if you still experience the problem with the
current version in Etch; if you can test Lenny/unstable, that would be
highly appreciated, of course. I will reopen this bug then.

Thank you for your report!

Martin
