CUPS Not Generating A Printcap File

CentOS No Comments

According to all of the documentation I can find, an /etc/printcap file
(or whatever filename is specified with the Printcap directive) is generated by cupsd ever time a printer is added or removed. On all of my CentOS 6.7 systems, this is NOT happening. I can restart cups and add or remove printers over and over and it still doesn’t generate the printcap file.

Is this a known issue, or is there some way that CentOS is blocking this from happening?
