Ubuntu 13.04 has cups 1.6.2-1ubuntu5. There is substantial co-operation between Debian and Ubuntu over the printing system, so I'm inclined to be optimistic and expect cups from unstable to fix this bug. Perhaps this does it:
* debian/patches/printers-c-recognize-remote-cups-queue-via-dnssd-uri.patch, Treat raw queues pointing to a CUPS server as remote queues (using PPD on server) also if they have a "dnssd://..." URI. The definitive way would be be to test with testing/unstable on a spare partition or a USB stick (any chance of your doing that?) would need some help to try this > , but meanwhile > I do not think it too unreasonable to mark the bug as fixed. > >> device for HP-Photosmart-3300-series: >> hp:/net/Photosmart_3300_series?zc=HPD0A041 > I wonder whether changing the backend might get you printing. > > 1.
