I have written some basic info about how to find out whether your printer supports driverless [1] and how to setup it [2]. If you have at least F33 and have the device in your LAN, you can use temp queues for sure, otherwise you need to create a permanent queue via lpadmin: $ lpadmin -p <name> -v <uri from lpinfo -l -v or ippfind> -m everywhere -E If you still experience the issue, do feel free to file a bug for cups in bugzilla and I can look into it further.
