[Gnome 3][Solved] Adding a network printer

I want to use my Epson Stylus Office BX610FW as a network printer. I installed CUPS, Avahi and gutenprint on my system but adding it as an printer in Gnome 3 is still not possible. The Gnome Control Center finds the printer but selecting to add it does nothing.

This occurs in my CUPS access_log when trying to add the printer.

localhost - - [29/Apr/2011:14:13:16 +0200] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 323 Create-Printer-Subscription successful-ok
localhost - - [29/Apr/2011:14:13:26 +0200] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 401 75 CUPS-Get-Devices successful-ok

localhost - - [29/Apr/2011:14:15:30 +0200] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 303 CUPS-Get-PPDs -

Did anyone already managed to get a network printer working in Gnome 3?

EDIT: Sorry for the quick post. I found a bug report with a workaround: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=648784

Re: [Gnome 3][Solved] Adding a network printer

I always just added printers through http://localhost:631 with CUPS...easier and more complete, in my opinion.
