Pycups not really installed?

[threed-factory-store]

Ubuntu Desktop 23.04

Edit: I do have libcups2-dev installed.

Edit 2:
For anyone else who needs to print from Python on Linux, and really, doesn't everyone?, check out https://github.com/phin1x/python-ipp

pip install pycups

gives me:
Requirement already satisfied: pycups in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages (2.0.1)

And pip show pycups returns:
Name: pycups
Version: 2.0.1
Summary: Python bindings for libcups

So... everything is OK, right?
But if I try to import either cups or pycups, I get:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cups'

My sys.path is:
['/home/walt/Documents/AnyCameraGrip/OpenScad',
'/home/walt/Nextcloud/Walt/Documents/AnyCameraGrip/OpenScad',
'/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages',
'/usr/local/lib/python310.zip',
'/usr/local/lib/python3.10',
'/usr/local/lib/python3.10/lib-dynload',
'/home/walt/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages',
'/usr/local/lib/python3.10/site-packages']

$ ls /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/cups returns:
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/cups.cpython-311-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/cupsext.cpython-311-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/cupshelpers-1.0-py3.10.egg-info
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pycups-2.0.1.egg-info

Any ideas why I can't import cups or pycups?
