The one exception I found is that MS Excel will crash when trying to display Printer Features.  I haven't been able to find any crash report on these instances.

This is interesting if it leads somewhere:
In the /xml/printers/canon.xml there are only two printers with the name Pro9000.  
They are also the only printers using the driver="bjc-Pro9000* and model=700900*
--lines 359 thru 366
driver="bjc-PIXUS-Pro9000" manufacturer="Canon" model="7009000" and 
driver="bjc-Pro9000mk2-series" manufacturer="Canon" model="7009002"

In the  /xml/printers/escp2.xml  there is only one printer in the XP-15000 series.
It is the only escp2 printer using (line 99)
driver="escp2-xp15000" manufacturer="Epson" model="132"

None of these three printers show anything under Printer Features in recent versions of macos.  It would appear that this is the case for macos 10.14 Mojave through macos 11 Big Sur.  All three printers display fine in macos 10.7.5.  I will try to chase this backwards to see if I can tell what version of macos this might have been the start of troubles.

In the mean time, any thoughts?  Are there any other "one off" printers to take a look at?
