Hi Tony. Thanks for getting back to us so soon.

You wouldn't believe the number of 'Arghs' I have encountered in my
Adventures with Debian.

I think using lpd might be seen as a workaround, whereas ipp14 is a
solution in the Debian context. My only reservation is that you are
connecting to a CentOS server and I for one do not fancy debugging that
interaction. If it comes to it you might have to submit a fresh bug
report.

It is documented in the cups changelog.Debian.gz. Till Kamppeter also
gave a good explanation in Message #44 in this thread.
Cheers,
Brian.
