Following the update released on Jan 15 I get the following in "/var/log/cups/error_log" when the computer boots up:

cupsd: entrygroup.c:424: avahi_entry_group_add_service_strlst: Assertion `name' failed.
Querying cups with "/etc/init.d/cupsys status" returns
Status of Common Unix Printing System: cupsd is not running but /var/run/cups/cupsd.pid exists.
This same thing happened on my system at work - a totally different make/model of computer that I let the update manager maintain. The only way to get cups running again is to restart it through terminal.
Thanks,
Seth
Same here...
Two different systems require restart of cups before printing is functional.
