Why should it be better then?
If the authors know how to correct it, why don't they do it now?

There have been several recent updates of system-config-printer recently,
but I haven't noticed any improvement.

I would suggest that the author or authors work out exactly how the program
is meant to work, and document that,
and preferably re-write the whole thing in python or perl,
so that one can see exactly what it is trying to do.
