Open Radar

 
Summary:
Select Apple application (e.g. Safari, Xcode) print dialogs are not loading APDialogExtensions as other applications do when using macOS Sierra. Without plugins loaded, this leads to a change or loss in functionality with some printers as required options may not be visible or may have changed.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add a printer using a PPD that loads plugins using APDialogExtensions
2. Using an affected Apple application (e.g. Safari, Xcode), open the Print dialog
3. Click "Show Details"
4. Click the printer options/PDE dropdown menu

Expected Results:
All options for that printer driver would be visible in the options dropdown. For example, color, finishing, or billing options.

Actual Results:
Only "Printer Features," as defined using OpenGroup commands in the PPD, is visible. Menus that would have appeared as part of APDialogExtensions plugins are not visible.

10.12.4

Notes:
Workaround: Create a preset with the required settings using an application that loads all options. Select this preset in an affected application. Prints complete as expected.

Configuration:
Does not occur in macOS 10.12.1, 10.12.2; OS X El Capitan
