Public bug reported: When Libreoffice is started it reads the printer list and saves it. When there is a change related to cups (new printers) or change the cups server, libreoffice needs to be restarted (all insteances) to acknowledge the new printers.
When I change offices, I need to update the /etc/cups/client.conf (or use a localhost cups server at home). If I have libreoffice open, it will not find any printer. This is a duplicated issue of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/911235 But that was focused on a specific printer model while the problem is more abroad. I have seen it from 12.04 to 15.10.
