Bug Description

Made a release-upgrade from 21.10 to 22.04.
Had no problems for the first tries.
After some days, i recognised, that (just!) in the browser applications i have no (default-)printer.
In all other applications (office, thunderbird, editor, ...) i have my printer.

But in chrome, firefox and opera i have just the possibility for "printing to PDF", but no (default-)printer.

In Ubuntu 21.10 (and also the former releases) i always had just one printer installed:
Brother MFC-J4620DW as a network printer.

So is it now with 22.04.
But not in the browser applications ....???

No problem any more.
I cannot reconstruct ... but there is no problem any more.
I have now also my standard-printer for choice, even in all browsers.
It must be result of a lot of updates during the time since reporting the bug.
Because for myself i did no action for active solving the bug ...

How is the situation with the 2nd affected person?
