[STR New]

The only way to get the real URI (not the sanitized URI) for a queue is to
parse printers.conf, since the device-uri is sanitized.  Applications
wishing to configure or diagnose remote CUPS queues cannot provide a 'test
URI' interface for (e.g.) smb: queues without fetching printers.conf.

It would be nicer if there were an attribute-based way of fetching the
real URI.
