PARTIALLY SOLVED! It **was** because of the Unity installation. Maybe that can get flagged somewhere? I tracked it down by looking at gtk3-print-backends, and what supplied that. After removal of the gtk3-ubuntu package, I get the System Dialog printers showing up… BUT STILL NO PRINTING from either Tbird or FF. ```auto [onyx@onyx-pc etc]$ sudo pacman -Rdd gtk3-ubuntu Package (1) Old Version Net Change gtk3-ubuntu 1:3.24.34-1 -76.18 MiB Total Removed Size: 76.18 MiB :: Do you want to remove these packages?

Actually it is SOLVED, only after removal of the printer it is now going to a queue and complaining about pdftops rendering or something… So I can sort that out. Thanks all!! ---
