Public bug reported:

Hi,

We have a cups server (ubuntu) that centralize all our network printers.
Each desktop users on Ubuntu (16.04, 18.04) are looking in that print
server to retrieve those printers. It works fine but...

# /etc/cups/cups-browsed.conf in a desktop user
...
BrowseRemoteProtocols cups dnssd
BrowsePoll 192.168.10.80:631 # CUPS server
...

Each time that an CUPS update is applied on the client side all printers
disappear from the listing and users are unable to print. So i have to
connect to xxx computers in our company to restart the cups-browsed
service...

This problem exist from some years.. but still not resolved and i didn't
found a way to fix it.


Workaround:
- sudo service cups-browsed restart OR reboot the computer


Thanks!
