Cups (http://127.0.0.1:631) only shows a single printer:
Code: Select all
Printers

Search in Printers:

Showing 1 of 1 printer.
Queue Name   Description   Location   Make and Model   Status
EPSON_ET-4750_Series   EPSON ET-4750 Series      Local Raw Printer   Idle


When I go to System Settings, then printers, it also shows that single printer.

When I run a KDE app like Okular, i get three printers: the Epson listed in Cups, then another copy of the same Epson, then a Laserjet I installed previously.

In non-KDE apps like Atril or Firefox, I just get the two spurious printers.

I can't get rid of these spurious printers.

Any pointers?
