[Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#459153: cups: Recommend printconf

[Marc Fargas]

Package: cupsys
Version: 1.3.5-1
Severity: wishlist
File: cups

Hi,
For newbies, or even normal users plugging a printer to the usb port
and seeing it magically appear on the printer list is **nice**.

To get this you need to install "printconf" (after finding the
package!)

To improve the user experience in Debian systems, could cupsys
Recommend printconf so newbies get their printers magically added?

Cheers,
Marc
