[Bug 54362] Re: Wrong printer model is preselected when adding a HPLIP printer

Tue Oct 31 21:23:32 UTC 2006

Case-insensitive matching probably helps in many cases, but as gnome-
cups-manager is not maintained any more it will probably not be
implemented there. printerdrake does case-insensitive matching, it is
one of the many methods to improve the correct model assignment.

The map from the device ID to the models already exists and is used by
the gnome-cups-manager. It is foomatic-db, the Foomatic database from
linuxprinting.org. Unfortunately this map is not complete, as we do not
have the device IDs of all listed printers.
