Description Brian McMinn 2005-10-17 03:13:55 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050524 Fedora/1.0.4-4 Firefox/1.0.4

Description of problem:
I have had my HP Deskjet 882C (a variation of the 880) connected to a previous version of Fedora Core and printing reliably.  The 880 series no longer shows up in the Model/Driver selection box via the web interface for cups.  In addition to that, each printer that is listed there is in there many times.  The 870 is listed 18 times.

I have updated my cups via the up2date system.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
cups-1.1.23-15.1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. point web browser to localhost:631
2. create a printer on Parallel Port #1
3. select make "HP" and then attempt to find Deskjet 880 or 882 in the list
  

Actual Results:  Deskjet 880 missing from list

Expected Results:  Select Deskjet 880 from list and get printer working

Use the graphical tool (Desktop->System Settings->Printing) to generate the PPD
for this printer.
