Not that I know (but I didn't double-check so far), as far as I know, LO just
retrieves them from CUPS.

In comment 2, you mention that other printers also still show them.

Interestingly, all of the printers have an '_rn6' suffix. Are those possibly
remote printers shared on the network, e.g. from some other host (maybe called
'rn6') and advertised e.g. using DNS-SD/Bonjour?

Do you have cups-browsed installed and running? If so, do the printers still
show up after disabling it?
