In my nearly 15 years of using Linux, CUPS only ever worked consistently with one printer I’ve owned. That printer was hooked up via cable. For all the wireless printers I’ve ever owned CUPS would recognize the printer once, do a job, and then magically act like the printer either doesn’t exist or is currently doing a job in perpetuity.

The last time this happened CUPS literally locked my PC out of using my printer because it always recognized it as job pending. Restart the printer, restart the PC, reinstall CUPS, change configs, and nothing worked. This was in the middle of working for a client. So I gave up and ended up emailing the documents to myself to use my phone.

Printing had been the most unreliable part of my workflow and CUPS is to blame for that.

No because anything is better than being surrounded by hostile people in your own home 24/7.
