211984 - List of printers doesn't update in Mozilla on OS/2

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Printing: Output, defect)

Description

[Jessica Blanco]

Mozilla doesn't reflect when a printer has been deleted or installed while the
browser is running. You can see the list of printers in the Print dialog. This
list doesn't update while the browser is running. You have to close the browser
entirely and restart for the list of printers to be updated.

Recreation scenario -
-Have no printers installed on computer
-Start mozilla
-Install a printer
-Click to print
Result - Mozilla says there's no printer. It should catch that there was a new
printer installed and bring up the print dialog.

Mozilla needs to refresh the print queue while running.

Attachment: patch to refresh printer list

Added RefreshPrintQueue function that refreshes the list of printers and keeps
the current set job properties for existing printers. Gets called every time
EnumeratePrinters() does.
