If you repeat that purge and install whilst connected to AP0 instead, do
you still get the same good lpstat result?  That would show it's
whatever AP is connected during the starting of CUPS after install
that's good rather than some difference between AP0 and AP1 that makes
AP1 break things.

Another command to try with the different APs is ‘avahi-browse -at’.
I'm guessing the local CUPS is also using mDNS/DNS-SD to discover local
network things and this may show if it's CUPS having problems, or
discovery in general.

I found a bug in this area, though I don't think it's related.  It does
suggest this area isn't problem free, though.
