[cups.development] [RFE] STR #2804: Limit browsable printers based on policy

[Michael Sweet]

[STR Closed w/o Resolution]

First, the normal way of sharing printers doesn't involve the clients
getting the printer list directly from the server.

Second, adding an IP check for every printer would involve several lookups
(not just the policy, but also the location limits), which would likely
cause serious performance problems.

I don't see us every implementing this. Look at running multiple servers
(even on the same system) to limit the printers that are visible to
clients.
