Application: plasmashell (5.24.5)

Qt Version: 5.15.3
Frameworks Version: 5.93.0
Operating System: Linux 5.17.5-arch1-2 x86_64
Windowing System: X11
Distribution: "Arch Linux"
DrKonqi: 5.24.5 [KCrashBackend]

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed:
I started the kde plasma session from sddm

- Unusual behavior I noticed:
Flickering desktop background, no taskbar, no desktop icons. Just the wallpaper alternating with a flashing black screen.

I noticed mentions of cups in the logs (which I'm attaching), so I stopped the service. Plasmashell finally started up and displayed the taskbar and everything. Previously, I had tried renaming multiple kde-related dot files.

- Custom settings of the application:
I have a lot of printers configured with CUPS.
I am pretty sure the CUPS plasmoid crashes, which brings down the whole plasmashell with it.

It's notable that it's far from the first time I report the ploblem. I had a very similar issue (CUPS plasmoid-related plasmashell crash) years ago, but it was fixed. Having any integration or plasmoid crash should not bring down the whole shell, regardless of where the issue comes from.

The crash can be reproduced every time.
