Our SL7 clients are using cups-browsed to discover printers shared from our central SL7 cups server. Most of our queues have underscores in their names, and for some reason cups-browsed is changing the underscores to dashes. This breaks the queues for our SL7 clients.
When running cups-browsed --debug, for example, we see:
------
cups-browsed: browse packet received from x.x.x.x
cups-browsed: browsed queue name is w320_br_5470
cups-browsed: Found CUPS queue: w320-br-5470 on host x.x.x.x.
cups-browsed: Bonjour IDs: Service name: "Wilson 3rd Floor Black and White Duplex", Service type: "", Domain: ""
------
Which then gives:
------
lpstat -v w320-br-5470
device for w320-br-5470: ipp://x.x.x.x:631/printers/w320-br-5470
------
This doesn't work, as the queue on the server is actually w320_br_5470.
When looking at the cups-filters changelog, I see:
------
CHANGES IN V1.0.62
- cups-browsed: Allow underscore characters in print queue names.
Thanks to Tim Waugh from Red Hat for the bug report (Bug #1241).
------
Any suggestions for working with remote queues names that contain underscores in SL7 (cups-filters 1.0.35) would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Devin
