Greetings all;
I have a mixed home network, some buster, some bullseye, all up to date
a/o yesterday.
I have 2 printers shared on this bullseye main box, available as 5 or 6
printers, each configured in cups to do a specific job. Good printers,
both running on brother's own linux drivers for that printer.
All my buster machines can use both of these printers just as if they
were plugged into that machine, but a machine shop full of sawdust and
metal shavings is not a good printer environment, even if there was room
for them, which there isn't.
All of my bullseye machines are locked out, printer screen at
localhost:631 is empty, and no printers can be found and added.
But open a shell, and type "lpstat -t" and it gets the full list of
available printers on that same bullseye machine whose cups output is
empty.
Why?
Take a look at
https://wiki.debian.org/CUPSQuickPrintQueues
The quick ref is to install avahi-utils and run
avahi-browse -rt _ipp._tcp | grep URF
had to install it, pulled in 7 other pkgs: then:

If you get a line matching URF the printer supports the AirPrint
service. Install cups and see if it works (which is all that I needed
to do to get the printer working). If no, what does
cups already installed as part of armbian

Went to machine, ff already running for octoprint tab opened to
localhost:631, no printers for a printer search.
So cups still cannot see the shares but only for a bullseye install,
buster installs work just fine.

Thanks Lee.
