You have been subscribed to a public bug by Till Kamppeter (till-kamppeter):
If a printer is set up with system-config-printer and no locally
installed driver is available, system-config-printer automatically
searches for a driver on OpenPrinting via Jockey. Search, download, and
installation of the driver take rather long time.
To reproduce, run the following command line in a terminal window:
system-config-printer --setup-printer='file:/tmp/printout'
--devid='MFG:Ricoh;MDL:Aficio SP C820DN;'
This will fake the detection of a Ricoh Aficio SP C820DN for which there
is no driver/PPD in a default installation of Ubuntu.
If a local driver is found, please run the command
sudo dpkg -P openprinting-ppds-extra linuxprinting.org-ppds-extra
openprinting-ppds-postscript-ricoh
to uninstall the locally installed driver and run the command shown
above again.
