How to reproduce
-----
I tried to rename my LAN printer using the Printing applet off the GNOME Administration menu. The printer is a Canon MX340. I tried renaming it from "mx340" to "Canon MX340"

Comment 4 Ian Springer 2010-07-19 20:42:17 UTC
I tried renaming it to "Canon-MX340" instead (note: i replaced the space with a dash), and it worked, so I think it's the space in the printer name that causes it to choke.

Comment 6 Jiri Popelka 2010-09-20 16:19:51 UTC
Actually this bug is really about crashing after putting some spaces in new printer queue name when renaming. (bug #625502 is probably anything else)
Reopening.

The printer name may not contain spaces, slashes (/), or the pound sign (#).

We can't let the user know directly during typing (as we do that when adding new printer) because gtk.CellRendererText doesn't know 'changed' signal.

I chose the easiest way and erase the disallowed characters from the new name just before renaming.

We can eventually make some small dialog preventing renaming until the new name is correct (that's how the cups web interface works).
