I recently tested the above on a non-Debian Edu, but Debian jessie  
based network (at work).

It seems that libnss-mdns is required on the CUPS server and all  
associated CUPS clients.

Once the libnss-mdns package is installed on both ends, printing works well.


I have just committed a patch to debian-edu.git that adds libnss-mdns  
to education-desktop-other and eduation-main-server tasks.

Mike
