[Bug 36862] Visual inconsistency with selecting printer manufacturer

[rapha]

Public bug reported:

Affects: gnome-cups-manager (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Wishlist
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
The list from which you can select the printer manufacturer is both inconsistent with the rest of GNOME/Ubuntu and visually trying (i.e.: it's hard to find the name you are looking for). Ideally, it would also be possible to select the field and hit the letter that corresponds with the first character in the manufacturers name to get to that point in the list.

Note: the original reporter indicated the bug was in package 'cups'; however, that package was not published in Ubuntu.
