Bug#772097: LibreOffice sees only "Generic Printer"
Package: libreoffice
Version: 4.3.3.2
Dear maintainer,
I am a longtime user of Debian Wheezy (and prior) but have recently
installed plain-vanilla Jessie on two different laptops, and tried them
in two different LANS (home and work), each with Debian Stable print
servers serving a variety of network printers via cups, samba, and
dns-sd. Both laptops behave the same way in both LANs.
I can print from every OTHER application I have tried, but I cannot
print from LibreOffice. Only the "Generic Printer" option is
displayed. No way to get it to reload or discover other printers that I
can tell.
The only workaround I have found is to export to PDF, load the PDF file
in a viewer or browser, and print from there. Very inconvenient.
Googled quite a bit and saw nothing. I hope I am googling the right
terms. Let me know if I can provide more info.
