Description Terje J. Hanssen 2014-10-08 13:37:14 UTC
I follow this procedure to setup a lexmark network printer

yast2 printer
Print via Network
Connection Wizard
Access via TCP port
IP-address ....
Select printer manufacturer: lexmark
OK
Retriev printer information: No matching printer

This happends for the first time and the first printer setup
and is very confusing for new users.

When I quit YaST and next do a new attempt following the same procedure all Lexmark drivers (ppd) are listed as they should and the printer setup is straight forward.

With probability 1 it is one more duplicate of bug#727911

Look for "lpinfo:" message(s) in /var/log/YaST2/y2log
