Public bug reported:

On current LTS (Precise) CUPS does not see printers advertised from CUPS
1.6 systems.  Yes, I understand that the whole CUPS browse feature went
away in CUPS 1.6, but that means that current LTS has a functionality
hole/regression where CUPS 1.6 servers are concerned.
Fedora has dealt with this for example by supplying cups-browsed.

Ubuntu, current-LTS should do the same or similar.  LTS systems should
not be broken simply because other machines it used to get printers from
upgraded to CUPS 1.6.
