[Bug 763369] Re: Printer configuration was working, installed Samba4 for browsing samba shares, crashes now

[Guido Jäkel]

Dear Scott,
you're completely right:

configuring a new computer I run into the same issue:

* adding a remote printer (via ipp:), first tests works fine
* after declaring it as the default, the Printer Administration Page on  systemsettings  fail. Running it from the console, it drops the same error messages as above.

The solution was to copy the appropriate ppd file for the defined remote
printer to  /etc/cups/ppd/ . (I my case, i was able to copy it from the
same directory on the remote server, because in my case the printer is
attached there as a local one.)

After restarting the cups service, the Administration Panel works,
again. In addition, the print dialogs in other applications now choose
the right default settings for the paper size.
