I haven't looked at the fix (yet) but I definitely agree that a manual 
regression test
for this  is better than none. What else should we do ? Just not test 
printing ?

In my view which I've expressed to SQE for a really long time, if you 
aren't testing with
printers installed you aren't testing the whole platform. Whilst it may 
be convenient
that tests (silently) don't complain when there are no printers, it is a 
slippery slope ..
