            Bug ID: 383139
           Summary: printing to cups printer silently failing (error on
                    console - lpr: The printer or class does not exist)
           Product: okular
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: critical
          Priority: NOR
         Component: printing
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: ericj at mcalvin.com
  Target Milestone: ---

Version: 1.1.2
OS: OpenSUSE 42.3
RPM version: okular-17.04.2-1.6.x86_64

Since re-installing from OpenSUSE 42.1 to 42.3, Okular is unable to print to
remote printers (served via a CUPS print server).  The GUI will not throw any
exceptions.  However, Okular will print the following to the console (if
started that way):

lpr: The printer or class does not exist.

In another case, it printed to the first printer in the list rather than the
one selected.  Note that we have 149 printers defined (as shown in lpstat -t). 
Perhaps the long list of printers is causing some sort of overflow ?

Note that other software such as firefox is printing fine from the same user
session.
