The B432 is an IPP device; it very likely understands the IPP-over-USB protocol. When connected to USB the ipp-usb service is started and ipp-usb takes control of the only available USB interface. > > * What led up to the situation? > Want to print > > * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or > ineffective)? > select document, start print dialog, select my printer (config was done via > CUPS); Your manually configured iprinter is not being allowed to access the USB interface. This is not a bug. Please see sections 14, 15 and 16 at https://wiki.debian.org/CUPSDriverlessPrinting > Now the printer appears a second time in the list with a different entry.

"allow-interfaces=eth9" effectively prevents avahi-daemon from working on all interfaces, including the loopback interface. ipp-usb is exposed on the loopback interface by default. avahi-daemon is now completely crippled; it may as well be purged from the system. > Therefor I assume this hides a bug > or an improper default configuration. There isn't any bug in avahi-daemon.
