Hi all,
as you probably know, Fedora 13 has a new automatic printer driver
installation feature[1], but for the automatic printer driver
installation to work properly we need your Device IDs! Many IDs are
missing for current printers, and some existing IDs are incorrect.

Everyone can help fix this by following the instructions in the test
day page.[2] You don't need a Rawhide installation to provide useful
feedback, just a nightly live image[3] will do. Alternatively, you can
also determine missing IDs with your own installation of Fedora 11 and
12 by following the steps outlined in Tim Waugh's blog[4].

Thanks in advance for contributing
