Description Aleksandar Pavić 2022-12-27 08:25:19 UTC 
Description:
Libreoffice is displaying all printers discovered by

lpstat -l -e

command, which can be huge list on corporate networks.

Currently linuxes lets you configure printers via
system-config-printer 
or cups so only choosen printers are available.

This works in Google chrome and others.



Steps to Reproduce:
1. Print document
2.
3.

Actual Results:
Displays all printers available on LAN network

Expected Results:
Display only printers configured via system-config-printer or cups, not all from avahi.

So lpstat -l -e commands lits permanent at printers which should be visible in print dialog.
 


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:
This is common problem, lot's of questions on askubuntu and similar websites.
