Description

What happened?

Hello,
I have Edge 150.0.4078.65 and before with my v3 extension i could add printers and use printers using the printerProvider api. Now the functions from the printerProvider api(
chrome.printerProvider.onGetPrintersRequested.addListener,
chrome.printerProvider.onPrintRequested.addListener,
chrome.printerProvider.onGetCapabilityRequested.addListener)
gets never called.
