The dialog to configure the CUPS browsing general settings is shown here. It includes:
Whether or not to broadcast printer information to other CUPS servers. Enabled by default.
Whether or not to use ‘short’ names for remote printers when possible (e.g. printer instead of printer@host). Enabled by default.
Whether or not to use implicit classes.
Printer classes can be specified explicitly, in the classes.conf file, implicitly based upon the printers available on the LAN, or both.
When Implicit classes are enabled, printers on the LAN with the same name (e.g. Acme-LaserPrint-1000) will be put into a class with the same name. This allows you to setup multiple redundant queues on a LAN without a lot of administrative difficulties. If a user sends a job to Acme-LaserPrint-1000, the job will go to the first available queue.
This option is enabled by default.
