Resolution
1. Manually restart CUPS using self service
- There is a JAMF policy for all 13.7.5 machines to restart the CUPS server manually on every logon. This isn't ideal but people do like to print so hey lets start the CUPS systems at login
- Open Self service press search for CUPS
- Press Start on the Start CUPS Printing System Manually
Enjoy printing again
