[GTALUG] print serving / print clients

[David Collier-Brown]

My Ubuntu PVR, calvin, supports a printer which presents a CUPS 1.7.2 
web admin on port 631 and the printer on 
usb://EPSON/Stylus%20Photo%20700?serial=066030217dxsc3ei

My local machine running CUPS 1.7.5 sees the remote machine/printer pair as
"dnssd://EPSON%20Stylus%20Photo%20700%20%40%20pvr._ipp._tcp.local/cups"

I think dnssd is DNS Service Discovery, a zeroconf thingie, but it could 
be Dental Negative Storage System, Distributed for all I know (;-))
