Hi everyone, I'm working on the COSMIC printer setup application for CUPS 3.x. I have a question about driverless IPP printers that are not automatically discovered, for example, when DNS-SD/mDNS is disabled. What is the recommended way for a desktop printer setup application to allow users to add such a printer manually? I'm looking for the intended approach in the CUPS 3.x architecture. Thanks, Abdelrahman Khalifa
