Deleting a cups printer

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi

I was having printer issues, trying to print jobs just resulting in
the system waiting and waiting and not actually printing anything. I
deleted the printer from the Settings -> Printers and added it again,
This got things working, however whenever I open the Settings the
original printer is back in the list of printers, along with the new
one that I added. Everytime I delete it, but when I open settings
again it's back.

How can I actually delete the printer?

If I go to the CUPS settings, i.e. open http://localhost:631 only the
new working printer is listed.

So it seems that something else is finding this old printer and adding
it back, in /etc/cups/cups-browsed.conf I set BrowseRemoteProtocols to
none and restarted cups-browsed.service to see if it was trying to he
helpful and setup the printer automatically. That however didn't seem
to help?

Any idea how I can actually delete this old broken printer
configuration so it doesn't keep coming back?

Cheers

Adam
