The new way to enable cups is simply sudo systemctl enable cups.service

Wasn’t this issue extensively covered and this fix quoted here?

Hummm, someone mentioned this 4 or 5 days ago in a YouTube chat, so I went to the Archlinux.org, there was nothing mentioned on the “Lastest News” section on this issue. :thinking:
I have not see this on any of my Arch OS flavors. Maybe I’m lucky… Usually not! Lol
I will keep this post in mind just in case… :slight_smile:
Thanks for the posting!
