️ My new printer stopped working under #LinuxMint the other day. Re-adding it resulted in a general error message.
Finally found the solution:
In the printer's "location" field, I had specified "Mein Büro" ("My office" in German). And Cups does not like umlauts in that field.

After removing the "ü", the printer worked.
Maybe this information will be helpful to someone, at some point.

"Mein Bro" ist allerdings missverständlich.

Ein herzliches Dankeschön für diese Information. Sie kann tatsächlich mal nützlich sein.
Magst du diesen Bug auch an Cups melden? Sonst erfahren die Entwickler nie davon und wir werden für immer diesen Workaround brauchen.
