Hi all,

I recentel went through the kde/qt6 update (not sure if related) and now okular cannot find my printer anymore while I have no problem with libreoffice-bin.

Here is some info:
Code:

$ lpstat -p
printer Canon_MP240_series is idle.  enabled since Tue 10 Sep 2024 09:35:45 AM PDT
$ lpoptions -d Canon_MP240_series
copies=1 device-uri=usb://Canon/MP240%20series?serial=A32EEA&interface=1 finishings=3 job-cancel-after=10800 job-hold-until=no-hold job-priority=50 job-sheets=none,none marker-change-time=0 number-up=1 print-color-mode=color printer-commands=none printer-info='Canon MP240 series' printer-is-accepting-jobs=true printer-is-shared=false printer-is-temporary=false printer-location printer-make-and-model='Canon MP240 series - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.3.4' printer-state=3 printer-state-change-time=1725986145 printer-state-reasons=none printer-type=2134028 printer-uri-supported=ipp://localhost/printers/Canon_MP240_series
$


Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

Firefox shows the printer. Maybe it is a kde problem due to the update... any suggestion on troubleshooting printers in kde?

Found it!

Okular is kde, so make sure that kde related packages have the "cups" flag on (if it is not set globally) :roll:

Not sure why after the updated the package didnt pull in "cups", anyway here is what fixed it for me (added "cups" to existing flags):
Code:
x11-libs/gtk+ wayland cups
gui-libs/gtk cups
dev-qt/qtbase-6.7.0 opengl wayland icu libproxy cups

"cups" is enabled by default in desktop profiles...
