Oh, yuck. Yet another thing in the mix. Three daemons just to use a
printer! Really?!
Three daemons? You mean cupsd + avahi-daemon on the server and cupsd +
cups-browsed on the client? How about it's nice that there's a useful
standard for things and everything except Windows can find printers on
the network?
Also, you don't need this to use a printer. You can just run cupsd to
print to a local printer or you can manually add the remote cups printer
on the client. What's the problem?
