In the new 2.0 beta versions, configuring a printer no longer prompts for a name when adding a printer like the previous versions did. Instead it appears to just default to always calling the entry HP Printer.

This may be fine for places that only have one printer, but if you have more than one, you end up with several configurations all named "HP Printer", and all of the devices named "HP Printer " and all of the entities named "hp_printer_"

While we could of course go through and rename everything, especially with the 2.0 versions creating more devices than the previous versions did, this becomes tedious, especially if you have more than just a couple of printers.

Could we either return the functionality to specify a name when adding a printer OR pull the name from the device itself? Perhaps the best option would be to allow specifying a name when adding a configuration, but having it default to the name pulled from the device if a name is not specified?

It should be done by renaming integration name, dor now no plans to re add that feature.

In the integration under devices & services open the hp printer integration the 3 dots menu, then rename.
