Hi,
for the last couple of versions of chrome, I can't get printing to work. Printers appear in the preview dialogue as usual; printing to them results in silent failure. Nothing relevant-seeming in CUPS logs. Still happens with chrome extensions disabled. Print to PDF works fine; print using system dialogue opens a strange, half-empty, dialogue which only has "print to file" as an option -- no mention of printers. This is for two machines, both fully updated 64-bit plasma 5.
Given that it's happening on both of my machines, I'm assuming that others may be seeing the same thing. Any ideas where to look for a solution? Thanks in advance

Since Chrome recently moved to a GTK3 base, I suppose https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/CUPS#Installation the gtk3 part will apply here as well.

Many thanks hoerbert and V1del. Installing gtk3-print-backends solves the problem.
