This is rather odd. For the longest, every time I had a cups update, I=20
had to delete my printers then add them back again. It would not print=20
until I did so. That wasn't long ago either. I haven't had to do that=20
the last few upgrades but for over a year, that was required. It used=20
to get on my nerves. Restarting the service I can understand. It needs=20
to reload its new config and all but not deleting and adding them again.
