The creation of a queue with CreateIPPPrinterQueues couldn't be easier
but auto-generation of a PPD gets default default values for the printer
capabilities. I think it is legitimate (and long-established practice)
for other queues with different options for the same printer to be
capable of being set up.

This cannot be done with CreateIPPPrinterQueues so another tool (the web
interface, s-c-p or lpadmin) would have to be used. However, after
setting up another queue and restarting cups-browsed, the original
CreateIPPPrinterQueues queue disappears.

Of course this may be simply the way it is meant to work. In which case
we can close this report.

This is what I have from 'lpinfo -v':

 network dnssd://HP%20ENVY%204500%20series%20%5BFAFAC2%5D._ipp._tcp.local/?uuid=1c852a4d-b800-1f08-abcd-308d99fafac2
 network socket://192.168.7.235:9100
 network ipp://envy4500.local:631/ipp/print

socket://... cannot be used to set up a driverless queue because the
transport protocol is not IPP. ipp://envy4500... is the URI produced
by the driverless utility and is the one I used to set up a second
queue which led to the observation above:

 lpadmin -p ... -v ipp://envy4500... -E -m everywhere

My understanding of the dnssd backend is that a URI is constructed
from a Bonjour txt record and the transport protocol is IPP.

 lpadmin -p ... -v dnssd://HP%20ENVY... -E -m everywhere

would appear to be equivalent to the previous command.

Using this URI it is possible to set up more queues and not have the
original CreateIPPPrinterQueues queue disappear. Printing to the
queue is successful. So, viewing the issue as a problem to be solved
rather than a bug in cups-browsed, I'll close this report.

Cheers,

Brian.
