FWIW, the code that imports CUPS-created queues into the redhat-config-printer
configuration database has been removed since Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, so
future releases should not be affected.


Comment 2 Tim Waugh 2005-06-20 10:07:52 UTC
You cannot in general create a queue in CUPS and be able to edit it correctly
using redhat-config-printer.  It is better, if you intend to use
redhat-config-printer, to create the queue there in the first instance. 
Alternatively, you can use the CUPS web interface exclusively.

Since this work-around is available, I am closing this bug as WONTFIX.
