Bug#656640: unknown IPP tag

Thu Apr 12 01:43:12 UTC 2012

Happens here as well.

get the error when i click Apply

If using a regular GTK application, i press print, everything seems to
work, and I get a blank page out of the printer (regardless of # pages
sent in the job)

When opening the printer options, (open printer settings in gnome,
right click printer, properties) i get a dialog:
"Error: Option 'printer-resolution' has value '(unknown IPP tag)' and
cannot be edited. [OK]"

here are the logs, after being forced to rotate, then printer added
and properties panel opened.

another box running an old ubuntu LTS or debian stable updated (still
kernel 2.6 something) is working just fine. i can get more info about
it if that helps.

system-config-printer (1.3.7-3) unstable

no idea how to generate that nice depency trhee on the other posts.
drop me a line if you need that, please. and pardon my ignorance.

thank you,
Gabriel
