I fixed the problem myself by setting the printer up with a cupsdriver. Since my printer is connected to my LAN as a networkprinter it is using the default "driverless" setup that works out of the box after i install Kubuntu. It works for native apps and flatpaks as well. Applications installed as

Changing the printerdriver from driverless to a selected Cups driver for the printermodell solved the issue on my end. It seems that snaps that are not using Cups-control are having trouble with connecting to printers using the driverless approach. -- You received this bug notification because yo
