I don't think "expected" is the right way to put this. I think=20 "explainable" is more accurate. I think it's reasonable to expect=20 that opening Debian's Evince from within Emacs would be able to=20 find the printers. The fact that it cannot is a bug introduced by=20 Guix's use of environment variables. I run into a similar problem where my window manager (awesomewm)=20 sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH, which then propagates to everything I run=20 from my session. It's quite a pain. I thought there was an open=20 issue for this, but I can't seem to find it at the moment. Carlo
