You also forgot to attempt to respond to a simple question. Curt
answered it satisfactorily.

Any doubts I have do not relate to a transpot or discovery protocol
but to a common PDL. As demonstrated at
https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2021/08/msg00681.html

You only mention two conditions. A driverless printing situation
requires *three* conditions.

This is where you go off the rails. I am utterly amazed that such
a syatement could be made in the context of a Debian installation.
These well meaning but ill-formed ideas really will have to revised
to match reality.
A Mopria-certified printer is not a reliable indicator of driverless
printing being possible on Debian.
