You don't need any central web server or special app to be able to print via the current printer standards, which are driverless (IPP Everywhere/Airprint/Google Cloud Print).
HP JaserJet P1102(w) and many other HP printers will not print without installing a proprietary "plugin" (or a special OSS converter foo2zjs) for both Wi-Fi and USB.
Devices which currently depend on a deprecated functionality - printer drivers and raw queues - will need a printer application once the deprecated functionality is removed from CUPS.
I think that the current version of CUPS should not be replaced by a new one with features removed. Move it, for example, to the cups-legacy package. Nobody is going to write application-based drivers for all existing legacy hardware.
