While this shouldn't be the case, is it possible that Qt Creator is asking
KDEPrint for printer information and that, as a Gnome user, printers are
configured only in Gnome but not in KDE (even though Qt Creator is not
technically a KDE application)?
Not likely, but perhaps worth a look.
One way to test is to try to print from another Qt (or KDE?) application.
