Description Oliver Ilian 2015-05-21 16:51:45 UTC 
Description of problem:
Would it be possible to add the Description and Location info from a cups server to the 'Printer settings' overview in Gnome 3

Right now the only info you see is the Printer Name. Adding a list view of all Printers with additional infos from the Cups Server would make help users to identify the right printer.

The idea is, to make it similar to the idea mentioned here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1223909
Comment 2 Matthias Clasen 2015-05-28 01:33:28 UTC 
Since you are talking about 'Printer settings', I assume you mean the control-center panel. Right ?
Comment 3 Oliver Ilian 2015-05-28 09:42:03 UTC 
Thats right.
Comment 4 Marek Kašík 2015-05-28 12:36:58 UTC 
Do I understand it correctly that you want to have the mentioned information in the GtkTreeView on the left side of the panel where the names are listed?

Comment 6 Oliver Ilian 2015-06-08 12:12:02 UTC 
I have added the current view that I have. I would like to have 2 things:

1. If you hover of the printer in this view, it gives you the details, like Location, cups server host name.
2. under "View" you can change to list view, and that shows the list like in "print_dialog" screenshot.

This is actually system-config-printer => reassigning.
