Update content/print/overview.md

Simple update to test my understanding of the process.

That's strange, certainly not something I see on my side. I'm away from home at the moment and see my printer in the list and I can select it.

Its on the Issue list as #15575

Actually I just tested against my wife's printer, and now it all works fine.

I'll investigate more tomorow.

IMO there isn't really a need to be that specific.

OK I've pinned it down repeatably.

Start with a new instance of dt, and nothing works until you a)select and image in lightable b) double click on a printer in the print right panel

After that it seems everything is cached and will work as expected.

Mica - I agree the manual doesnt need to be this specific, unless this is a bug/expected behaviour that won't be changing anytime soon.

We don't document bugs in the manual, only expected behaviour. If the printer is expected to be in the list at all times, then anything else is a bug. BTW my laser printer is off at the moment and I can see it and select it in the print view.

I'd expect much of this is about cups and how it is configured by the distro or package, and in that case being less specific is preferable, if things change from distro to distro or version to version we don't have to update it. Updates to the English text is magnified n-times by the number of translations.

That's a good point about translation magnifying the workload after a change to the English text.

There are lots of sections that could be improved a little, but it has to be a big improvement to justify 7 translations.
