Description of problem: Although valid IEEE 1284 Device IDs can contain MANUFACTURER and MODEL keys, these must be replaced with MFG and MDL when using the InstallPrinterDrivers interface. How to test: 1. Create /usr/lib/cups/backend/test: ==> #!/bin/bash cat <<"EOF" direct test://foo "HP LaserJet 4000" "HP LaserJet 4000" "MANUFACTURER:Hewlett-Packard;MODEL:HP LaserJet 4000 Series;COMMAND SET:PJL,MLC,PCL,PCLXL,POSTSCRIPT;" EOF exit 0 <== 2. Remove hpijs, gutenprint-cups, and foomatic-db-ppds packages 3. Using system-config-printer, add a queue for the dummy device Should get prompted to install drivers.
