Your problem I have also discovered on my machines and reported upstream
as

https://www.cups.org/str.php?L4628

For the time being do the following:

If you do not want to share any of your local printers, turn off printer
sharing via the "Server settings" in system-config-printer or via the

cupsctl --no-share-printers

command.

If you want to share at least one of your printers, set all printers
individually to shared, even the ones you do not intend to access from a
remote machine.

In both cases all printers will get listed in print dialogs and system-
config-printer then.
