Seems like this version of cups absolutely requires zeroconf. You can

I just copy-and-paste, on newcons I get all unwanted double-spacing.

Sorry about this formatting inelegancy.

I do no better with avahi or mdnsresponder, and I tried both.  Just a different

Again, a lot of inelegant extra spacing when I copy-and-paste in newcons.

On the other computer, where I have a freshly installed Seagate 4 TB hard 
drive, not yet started partitioning, I need to partition and install 
NetBSD-current, FreeBSD 11-current or 10-stable, followed by Linux.

I am curious to see how cups fares in NetBSD with pkgsrc, or Linux with Gentoo.

Another way is to see if I can print MS-Windows-style with wine and no cups.

Cups is an option with wine, so I don't know if I'd need it to print from wine.

I wish there were an alternative to cups for a printer that requires hplip.
