not really
I mean it depends a bit on your living situation.
I mean at jobs (e.g. self employed) you have to sometimes print things I guess often enough for it to be a viable attack.
And as a student if you might also sometimes prefer paper, but most universities have printer pools you mostly use over USB and that is just way cheaper then your own printer.
Sure if you play games like D&D you might print character sheets (or templates for them) but how often?
I think the last time I had to print anything was when I sold my car like 7 years ago (doesn't make sense to own one where I live).
And sure not everyone will have that experience but the combination of run Linux + has network discovery enabled and "publicly" accessible (i.e. no strict firewall) + uses a printer over the network before it's fixed + gets attacked with it seems not "that" high, actually as long as the fix is delivered quite fast and it wasn't abused for years it seem quite unlikely.
