If no settings have been changed, then it must be some update that did this.
I assume a newer update will fix it.
Especially if it is possible to narrow down to the update that did it.
Maybe you could see the pacman log (e.g. with pahis
) and try to find any related updated package like cups
or anything else. Then try to downgrade that package with the downgrade
program and see if it starts working again.
