Description Dan 2004-02-19 17:06:43 UTC

When configuring a new printer through the web interface to cups at localhost:631 The model/Driver page shows all of the available printer drivers for a given printer listed as the "same driver name (EN)" when the drivers are actually different underneath.  The real problem is the link name not the filename.  As a result it makes choosing the right driver difficult.  See the example below. Notice that the ja, nl, no, and pl drivers all have english labels.
