Description: after upgrade to cups 2.2.4-1 my printer does
not appear anymore in the dialog box of libreoffice and
okular (and maybe other applications?). It only shows
"generic printer".
For information gtk3-print-backends is already installed and I can see my printer in firefox for instance. Also, localhost:631 shows that the printer is installed and configured (printing a test page works fine). Downgrading cups and libcups to 2.2.3-1 solved the problem Additional info: * package version(s) cups and libcups 2.2.4-1 * config and/or log files etc. Steps to reproduce: upgrade to cups 2.2.4-1 |

I'm not the only one to have the problem: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=227947
This cups release has changes related to the printer queue. Try removing/readding the printer from the cups webinterface.
I tried to remove the printer and reinstalling it from the web interface of cups, without success.
So far there's no issue report https://github.com/apple/cups/issues.
Edit: Too fast - libcups has to be downgraded as well... Sorry for the noise.
my canon LBP3000 printer is not see by okular, kate, and even libreoffice ( writer ),
but in GIMP I can see my printer,
downgrading cups and libcups to the 2.2.3-1 version solve the problem
