[driverless] Missing InputSlot in PDD from Canon TS6150

[DavideRossi]

The printer has a read feed and a main tray but I cannot select it in the printer dialog.
It seems like the root cause is a missing InputSlot in the PDD produced by CUPS (and in that produced by cups-filters, see OpenPrinting/cups-filters#351).

@DavideRossi Can you run the following command and provide us with a copy of the output?

ippfind --exec ipptool -tv '{}' get-printer-attributes.test \;

Thanks!

[DavideRossi]

Sure, here it is.
ippfind.txt

@DavideRossi OK, thanks. I see "media-source-supported" in there with three values (auto, main, rear) which should show up in the PPD.

What version of CUPS are you using?

[DavideRossi]

2.2.7

[michaelrsweet]

Ah, OK. I think you'll find that CUPS 2.3.x fixes these issues for you...

I have the Canon TS8150 and am using CUPS 2.3.1-9. I have the same issue, no access to select the rear feed, or change the paper type.

@momist Make sure you have an updated cups-filters package - CUPS 2.3.1 will have the fixes for using the IPP Everywhere driver from lpadmin or the web interface, but not the auto-added one from cups-browsed.

Thank you Michael. I am using Mint 20.1, and have just reinstalled cups-filters and cups-filters-core-drivers using Synaptic. The system dialogue for my printer still has choice of paper-source, paper-type and output-tray greyed out. Could you please give me some more guidance?
