[STR New]

We don't want all printers to be visible by all cups clients.  The policy
feature allows limiting access to certain features based on domain, IP
address, etc, but the scheduler will not check the printer policies when a
list of printers is requested and will subsequently give everyone the full
list of printers.

If the policy of each printer is checked as the list is being generated,
then the printer list generated would just contain the printers they have
access to.
