this is the wonderful and mysteriously dreadful Common Unix Printing System.

Over the years I have logged/wasted/learned for countless hours.

To restart local printer services you need.

To restart the network broadcast(sharing) and browsing(using others) you need.


Usually best to just start over by running three commands.
sudo apt-get install --reinstall cups cups-browsed cups-client cups-common cups-daemon cups-server-common

then:

sudo systemctl daemon-reload

You can check the statuses with

service cups status

service cups-browsed status
