Why does everyone have the idea that you have to adjust client.conf on
all the clients of a print server?

You don't need to do that at all -- just enable browsing.  In fact,
this is done by default anyway; so just do nothing.

In theory, maybe.  In practice it didn't work.

Actually, it will definitely work because that's the way CUPS has been
defined.  I have always configured CUPS that way, and on the client
needed nothing.  As long as the CUPS server is on the same network as
the clients, the clients don't need any further configuration.

system-config-printer, then Actions -> Sharing.  There's a checkbox for
the client to scan for printers.  It is the default though.

Look, do what you want but to mix printers coonfigured with
system-confiog-printers with printers configured with web interface is a
road to disaster. They just don't work together.

I agree with that. But nothing in the message I responded to indicated that the Web interface was being used.
