Description of problem:
The Info field for all printers created by print manager is
"Created by redhat-config-printer 0.6.x".
                                                                     
          
This is less than helpful when viewing shared printers on a Mac
running OS/X as that seems to be the field it chooses to display ! 

Is there any chance of making the Info field more desciptive of the
printer ?

Maybe we could keep a separate list of queue names that have been
deleted -- that would get rid of the need for this special field.

This *should* be addressed in 0.6.130-1 in rawhide.
