[Bug 41266] Re: Printing: Unable to rename printer

Is there any workaround for this? I am trying to rename printer in
Ubuntu by editing /etc/cups/printers.conf . And it works until I reboot
machine ... After I reboot machine, my Ubuntu can't print any pages. If
I go to dialogs "printers", I see the button "print test page" as
disabled. I am using Ubuntu 9.10.

The reason I am trying to rename printer is because I have a dual boot
machine which can load Windows 7 and Ubuntu 9.10. When I am in Windows,
the printer is seen on my shares as EPSON BX300F Series . When I am in
Ubuntu, it is seen on my share as EPSON-Stylus-Office-BX300F.

In my network I have another machine, which is using the printer which
is attached to my machine. And because the printer names are different I
see two instances of printer in it. It is a mess which is confusing
those stupid windows users ...

Please help!
