bash: cups-genppdupdate: command not foundNot sure what to do now. If I use the IP Address directly, the printer will print endless blank pages whenever it gets a print job. I have to use the IPP Driverless. I have avahi, and nss-mdns, it's running, otherwise I wouldn't be able to detect anything automatically. I don't know what I'm supposed to put in my /etc/nsswitch.conf file, since I read nsswitch.conf(5) and I don't really know what to do:
# Name Service Switch configuration file.
# See nsswitch.conf(5) for details.
passwd: files systemd
group: files [SUCCESS=merge] systemd
shadow: files systemd
gshadow: files systemd
publickey: files
hosts: mymachines resolve [!UNAVAIL=return] files myhostname dns
networks: files
protocols: files
services: files
ethers: files
rpc: files
netgroup: filesI didn't have to manually add anything to the nsswitch.conf file the last time I installed arch for some reason, arch just did it for me.

In your console, what is the output of:
systemctl status cups.serviceIn your browser, what is the result of
http://localhost:631/Offline
In your browser, what is the result of
http://localhost:631/
This showed the cups information. I fixed the issue on my own after a while of digging, I found that the correct nsswitch.conf file for me would be:
# Name Service Switch configuration file.
# See nsswitch.conf(5) for details.
passwd: files systemd
group: files [SUCCESS=merge] systemd
shadow: files systemd
gshadow: files systemd
publickey: files
hosts: mymachines resolve mdns_minimal [!UNAVAIL=return] files myhostname dns mdns
networks: files
protocols: files
services: files
ethers: files
rpc: files
netgroup: filesAdding mdns_minimal to just before the unavail=return and mdns to the end of the hosts line. Afterward, a restart of the cups daemon may be needed.
