[cups.bugs] [MOD] STR #1600: web interface needs to quote '+' characters

Tue Apr 25 05:43:17 PDT 2006

[STR New]

If a printer has a '+' in the name, then you cannot use 'Modify printer' it
in the web interface any more (I guess it'll break in other places, too).
'Modify printer' links to 

http://localhost:631/admin/?op=modify-printer&printer_name=a+b

but + is a space in URLs. The + needs to be quoted:

http://localhost:631/admin/?op=modify-printer&printer_name=a%2Bb

then it works fine.
