[STR New]

In times of CUPS broadcasting the automatically created queues on the
clients had "ipp://..." URIs and they were correctly considered printers
on a remote CUPS server with driver on the server. Also manually created
raw queues with appropriate "ipp://..." URIs pointing to a CUPS server
were considered as such. Now without broadcasting and with printers often
getting changing IPs from DHCP servers one would use "dnssd://..." URIs
for such queues, but with these URIs the queues are not considered as
pointing to a remote CUPS server.

The attached patch corrects this.
