Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-cups-manager

Hello!
I have just installed the updates that allow now to print from Windows to Dapper attached printer and it works!!! Thank you! :))
But there may be a little bug: the normal user can't see the settings of the printer that he/she just made. The System->Administration->Printing menu works well and the options are available, but after setting new options and restarting the gnome-cups-manager module as normal user, the new settings doesn't appear. You have to launch the module as super user to see the new settings, and they are all available... 
Exemple:
1. launch gnome-cups-manager as normal user
2. set printer resolution from Automatic to 360x180 DPI Draft
3. exit
4. launch again gnome-cups-manager as normal user
5. printer resolution appears to be Automatic
6. exit
7. launch gnome-cups-manager as super user
8. printer resolution appears 360x180 DPI Draft (as set before in normal user mode)
9. exit
10. launch gnome-cups-manager in normal user mode
11. printer resolution appears ok now (360x180 DPI Draft, as wanted).

Thank you!

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