Yes.

This is gnome, love it or leave it!
Works on my distro. I can't get it to work with Debian.

what does it do Mike? details man!

It's difficult to remember now, but what I recall was that
I tried starting the GUI, and selected "Add new printer"
or sth like that. When I tried to create the new instance,
I was not allowed to select the one which was already
there. It wanted me to enter a whole new connection,
name, type, etc. Trying to create a new printer with
a new name but the same connection was also refused.
It appeared not to understand what I was trying to do.
It seemed to think that it was some sort of error to try
to associate multiple queues with one physical printer
connection.

On another distro, this is not a restriction.

I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
