Thinking on, how does this sound, Marc?
fan sees the Lexmark and the MX426. They would also be picked up by
'avahi-browse -art'. This implies that all three are on the same subnet.
The iPad sees the Lexmark, which again implies the two are on the same
subnet. The iPad does not see the MX426. Is it possible they are on
different subnets.
The Lexmark has a queue set up on parada. Suppose the same was done for
the MX426. 'lpinfo -v' should give the URI. Searching the output of
'lpinfo -m' should give a PPD. Then
lpadmin -p testmx426 -v <URI> -E -o printer-is-shared -m <PPD>
(I am not sure if printer-is-shared is needed).

Brian.
