[SOLVED] Printer not showing up in print options but working (CUPS)

Question

I am using Lexmark X1270 and have got it working via CUPS web interface (printed test page and all), but even after restarting CUPS daemon and rebooting, it does not show up in File > Print in any apps like Firefox, Openoffice, etc. All I see in the print is "Print to file," no printer shows up.

Same problem here with a HP LaserJet Professional 1102W.
Also:

I would be very thankful for any hint.
