--- Comment #7 from Glenn Burkhardt 2014-02-02 21:23:23 CET ---
On the forums thread
(https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/494648-Suse-13-1-Cups-won-t-conne...),
"kalten" noted that CUPS uses SNMP for printer discovery, but there's no
mechanism in the 'nsswitch.conf' file that enables a hostname lookup for the
hostname that CUPS finds during printer discovery.
Just as predicted, the command "snmpget -c public -v 2c 192.168.0.4 sysName.0"
yields the hostname:
SNMPv2-MIB::sysName.0 = STRING: BRW0C84DC169F5E
but avahi qualifies it with a domain, so I can ping "BRW0C84DC169F5E.local" but
not "BRW0C84DC169F5E".
Changing the URI in /etc/cups/printer.conf to
"lpd://BRW0C84DC169F5E.local/BINARY_P1" works.

see above.

Glenn Burkhardt,
if I understand you correctly you mean that
CUPS (in your case the CUPS web interface but I assume
also "lpinfo -v" shows the same) when autodetecting
your network printer it shows a so called DeviceURI
"lpd://BRW0C84DC169F5E/BINARY_P1"
but that DeviceURI does not work for printing.
In contrast those DeviceURIs do work:
"lpd://192.168.0.4/BINARY_P1" and
"lpd://BRW0C84DC169F5E.local/BINARY_P1"
According to
https://bugzilla.novell.com/page.cgi?id=fields.html#status
I close this issue as " UPSTREAM":
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The bug exists upstream. "Responsibility for a bug is said to lie upstream
when it is not caused through the distribution's porting efforts."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Can you please report this directly to CUPS upstream at
http://www.cups.org/
so that there is a direct communication between you
and the upstream authors - cf. "Background Information" at
http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:How_to_Report_a_Printing_Issue
Ideally post an URL to your upstream bug report here as reference
(you do not need to reopen this issue to add comments).
