The CreateIPPPrinterQueues works very nicely with remote print queues. A permanent local queue is created which can be printed to using lp or the GTK, Qt and Libreoffice dialogs. When dealing with a remote IPP printer the situation is different, as described in #905850 and #908604: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=905850 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=908604 Unlike a print queue, the queue for an IPP printer is temporary and disappears within a minute from the 'lpstat -a' output and from a GTK dialog (but not from Qt and Libreoffice dialogs). Very confusing for a user, I would have thought. CreateIPPPrinterQueues is not sufficient for a permanent queue to be created. The temporary nature of a printer queue is not documented and neither is the solution, setting UseCUPSGeneratedPPDs to "No". Regards, Brian.
