Okular has stopped seeing the available printer on my system (the print dialog only sees "Print to Pdf" and "Virtual_PDF_Printer") .
It is a networked printer (driven by a different linux box) and it works fine from other computer in the local network, as well as from other applications on my system. I can print, for instance, from Evince. I thought it would be a KDE issue, but I can see the printer in KDE settings, and print test pages from there too. So the issue seems to be Okular-specific. I was away from this particular linux box from the beginning of May to the end of June, and Okular was working regularly in May. So I'm guessing it is one of the updates that have occurred in that time frame.
Anyone seeing this problem?

have you installed the printer in cups, or is it auto detected?

Actually I do not remember. The printer was installed via cups on the print server and shared. I don't think I did anything particular on the box that I'm having troubles with, i.e. it was autodetected.
But your message prompted me to try adding the networked printer adding in the local CUPS, and now I can see it again in Okular. As expected, and annoyingly so, I now see two printer queues corresponding to the same printer in all apps except okular.
