From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.2) Gecko/20040809 Epiphany/1.3.8 Description of problem: The default names for the printer queues are different between system-config-printer and hal_lpadmin. This causes two printer queues to come up when configuring a printer via Kudzu on boot and when it is detected by HAL. system-config-printer should move to using hal's format because it is more descriptive. Hal's format is as follows: <printer model>-<usb port number> The model is converted to lowercase and whitespace is converted to dashes. If it makes it easier the usb port number can be changed to the usb device number. I like port number better because if you plug the printer into the same port each time you will get the same number. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure a printer with kudzu on boot Actual Results: you will see two configured printers queues. Expected Results: One printer queue. Additional info:
