[cups] Query queue Location/Description from command-line?

[Peter Schultz]

I'm trying to write a script to synchronize related print queues via the
command-line and I need to determine the given queue's Location and
Description attributes (set via lpadmin) via script.

I'd rather not have to run this script as an elevated user, meaning I'd
rather avoid parsing printers.conf.

I've perused all of the manpages I can find and nothing seems to let me do
this. Is there something I'm missing? Should I just curl localhost:631 for
the printer in question?

Sincerely,
Peter Schultz
