I have a network printer which I use through CUPS.

The printer is ipv6 enabled and I can connect to it with ping6 but when
I try to print to it over ipv6 it fails silently.

I changed the line in /etc/cups/printers.conf from

DeviceURI socket://192.168.xx.xx

to;

DeviceURI socket://fe80::200:74ff:xxx:xxxx

Enclosing the ipv6 address within square brackets or specifying the IP
interface cause CUPS to baulk

Any ideas what the problem is?
