1. Start LibreOffice Writer
2. Add new printer in Cups
3. Open the print dialog

EXPECTED:
You can see the newly added printer

OBSERVED:
Printer is not there. You need to colse Writer and open it again for it to notice the printer.

P.S. OpenOffice didn't have this problem, I could even start/stop cups
and Writer would update printing dialog correspondingly.

Title:
  [Upstream] LibreOffice doesn't update printer list on netbook WiFi to
  router to ethernet to PC w/ cups server usb to HP OfficeJet Pro 8500

Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite:
  Confirmed
Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  1) Ubuntu 11.10

  2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-writer
  libreoffice-writer:
    Installiert: 1:3.4.4-0ubuntu1
    Kandidat: 1:3.4.4-0ubuntu1
    Versionstabelle:
   *** 1:3.4.4-0ubuntu1 0

          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
       1:3.4.3-3ubuntu2 0
          500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/main i386 Packages

  3) What is expected to happen on a netbook WiFi connected to router to
  ethernet to PC hosting cups server USB connected to HP OfficeJet Pro
  8500 is with the printer off, LibreOffice Writer running, is when one
  turns the printer on Writer immediately recognizes the printer is
  available to be printed to.

  4) What happens instead is the printer is not available to be printed
  to. This occurs every time this is tested. However, Evince and Firefox
  can print to the printer with no problem.

  WORKAROUND: Turn on the printer, restart Writer.
