You mentioned "YaST", "client-only", "configuring the queue",
"cups manager", "connecting a different usb printer",
"using samba", "add SMB printer", and "cups-autoconfig" which
is almost anything which is possible regarding printer setup
but without information how I can reproduce it.
For me it seems it is not a bug in our software
(therefore I close it as WORKSFORME)
but that you set up a mixed-up (i.e. wrong) configuration.

Sorry I wasn't clear about it but I myself was quite confused with what went
down so I couldn't really describe it. What went down is...

1. I first had network printer configured via SMB which worked fine

2. Then, I switched the connection to client-only cups, which worked fine too.

3. I needed to use a scanner so plugged in a multifunction device which also
includes a printer to the USB port. Scanner worked fine. I didn't do anything
about the printer. After done using it, I disconnected it.

4. After a while, I tried to print but there was no printer queue configured.
I went to yast printer configuration which was showing the queue configured in
#2 alright. I removed the cups printer which, after restarting yast printer,
showed SMB printer from #1 and USB printer from #3. I deleted them and added
back cups client only configuration but still no queue. I repeated several
times but it was the same.

So, basically, cups client only configuration was broken by plugging in a USB
printer. Sounds like a bug to me.

Thanks.
