ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 Nate Graham 2019-10-09 20:04:10 UTC 
Does `kde-add-printer` work if you run it manually on the command line?
Comment 2 Greta Watson 2019-10-09 20:12:26 UTC 
No, it does not work from the command line.  It also does not work from the printing gui in the system settings.  Same result for both.
Comment 3 Nate Graham 2019-10-09 20:14:19 UTC 
Thanks for the information. That means this a packaging bug in Fedora. Please report it to them here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi

Thanks!
