Will Win 8 support adding printer manually?

Question

I was trying to add different printers and Windows 8 devices and printers only does automatic search. However, I need to add via IP address. Is this going to be implemented later? Or not at all?

Answer 1

Summ0n3r,

In Windows Explorer,

1. Click on Network on left side
2. At the top choose add a printer instead of Add device and printers.
3. Click on The printer that I want isn't listed.

Answer 2

Can the "Add a Printer" button be added back to the "Add devices and printers" page again? I prefer using the list of icons in control panel rather than the various categories, but it therefore means I don't have access to the advanced printer setup dialog anymore!

It's just the more obvious place to look for such a feature - I'm probably not the only person that thinks so.
