I have updated to CUPS 1.7.0 RC1 now. If you have already added my PPA
to your system all what you need to do is updating your system,
otherwise add my PPA as described in my initial posting (copy below).
If you have network printers and/or remote CUPS servers (Linux, Mac, and
also some routers) around, try also the command line tools ipptool and
ippfind.
