I have a printer HP LaserJet 1020
installed locally (USB).
In my environment, I am having to sometimes use another printers of the same type/model
on the same machine (i.e. just another HP LaserJet 1020
). So printer driver would be 100% the same.
but if I just unplug the first HP LaserJet 1020
and plug another HP LaserJet 1020
(to the same USB port) it wouldn't print.
I am having to either install it as separate printer or modify existing printer to use another connection.
I understand this is rather a "feature" allowing to use multiple printers of the same type simultenously. But I really need to be able to use one connection for the same printer model.
So I could plug the same printers without re configuring them each time I want to use.
I already looked at all possible settings in cupsd.conf
and printers.conf
and wasn't able to find appropriate setting to achieve this.
