1 FWIW, it seems to work with cups with the following configuration in
2 /etc/cups/printers.conf
3
4 (I just let the printer acquire an IP from the dhcpd server on the lan,
5 and let cupsd discover the new printer,
6 and tried gutenprint-ijs-simplified.5.2 as the driver for it from

9 Note is that cupsd automatically discovered the following protocol to
10 talk to the printer (I tried others with no luck):
