Hi Tim,

 I don't normally print PDFs, but on my current system (LFS from
12th May, BLFS from 13th, with some updates: yes, I know, it's
getting old!) I can see my print queue if I open a PDF in
epdfview and then use file->Print.

This is with cups-2.2.3.

As always, I build cups very early, so that the gtk toolkits can use
the print queue.  Not sure how recent your build is, nor if you
perhaps changed the order you build things.
