Any doubts I have do not relate to a transpot or discovery protocol but to a common PDL. As demonstrated at https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2021/08/msg00681.html this is the critical third factor.

I am utterly amazed that such a syatement could be made in the context of a Debian installation. These well meaning but ill-formed ideas really will have to revised to match reality. A Mopria-certified printer is not a reliable indicator of driverless printing being possible on Debian. -- Brian.
