On Fedora, I often need to use Alternative Print Command, so you might
try that.
example: 'lpr -Pmyprinter'
without the quotes, with or without a space between -P and the printer name.
This is fairly longstanding problem with Fedora, and seems to affect
only Scribus, suggesting that somehow Scribus isn't interacting with
CUPS the way other programs are.
