Public bug reported:
After upgrade to oneiric, client cannot see server's broadcast printers.
Only after selecting "Show printers shared by other systems" AND
"Publish shared printers connected to this system" does this work. I
believe this is because it is not listening for the broadcasts. Diffing
the two config files:
(matt@hiro) /etc/cups$ sudo diff cupsd.conf.broken cupsd.conf.works
4c4,5
< Listen localhost:631
---
> # Allow remote access
> Port 631
It appears that it is not listening on port 631, so won't see the
broadcasts go out (I think).
