Printers are not saved, when closing "Print Droid" (Android 7.0)

Hi BlackSpruce,

thank you for your great working app. But on my device (Android 7.0) the printers will not be saved, when Print Droid is closed or my device is loosing WiFi-connection. I could only add them in manual mode, because of the local server settings. Printing is working fine, but the printer settings will not be saved.

Regards

The settings I have applied are:
Protocol: Lpr or Raw
Ip-Adress: The Ip of the printer
Page Description Language: Pdf or Raw

This happens to me too, on Android 7.1.2. I install my printers by importing the config from a CUPS server's IP address. Works great straight after I add the printers, but soon after all is forgotten.

I don't think it's an app issue though, as I've tried other print service plugins that also 'forget' the added printers under Android 7.1.2.

No idea for solutions or work-arounds yet :-(

This is a known issue for Nougat. Will be fixed in the next release.
