I have found out what the problem is. system-config-printer tries to
crate a print queue with an URI which contains double quotes. Same as if
you try the following command in a terminal window:

lpadmin -p testprinter -E -v
dnssd://Xerox%20WC%205638%20"CHARLESMEREDITHHOUSE_207"%20%40%20Arijit%20Nandi%E2%80%99s%20Mac._ipp._tcp.local/cups

CUPS complains with "Bad device-uri" and creates a queue pointing to
/dev/null.

** Changed in: system-config-printer (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Triaged
