[cups] Unattended installation of network printers

[Michael Sweet]

Sebastian,

Not sure I understand the question, but are you looking for a way to automatically add local queues for every network printer a system can discover?  I *think* cups-browsed can do that (something that is bundled with the cups-filters project that Till Kamppeter maintains for Linux) but in general that isn't something we would actively encourage since CUPS 2.2.x will auto-create queues for printers discovered via Bonjour when you go to use them.
