This is incorrect, ipp-usb is still started in udev mode, so it exits
immediately if no printer is found.  To start it in standalone mode, it
should rather be (here shown as an override):

    # /etc/systemd/system/ipp-usb.service.d/override.conf
    [Service]
    ExecStart=
    ExecStart=/sbin/ipp-usb standalone

    [Install]
    WantedBy=multi-user.target

This is better since ipp-usb will not exit immediately.  However, it
doesn't react to plugging the USB printer or starting the printer...

I'm afraid this points more at a problem with my setup, rather than a bug
in ipp-usb or the Debian packaging.  I will investigate more.
