[STR New]

Im current qorking on a place with close to 2000 printers. This would
indeed be a nice feature. And together with STR#1806 to be able to say
that this group of printers will be announced to this network.

If printers where groupable you could do it with access lists in
cupsd.conf. 

For example:

<Location /printers/printergroup>
  # Restrict access to the admin pages...
  Order allow,deny
  Allow from 192.168.1.*
</Location>

<Location /printers/printergroup2>
  # Restrict access to the admin pages...
  Order allow,deny
  Allow from 192.168.2.*
</Location>

Or similar.
