Public bug reported: Drastic changes in CUPS 1.6.1 (non Apple feature removed mostly) are detrimental to Ubuntu users. We should wait until the missing features (like automatic appearing of remote CUPS queues) before to unleash the newer version to users. This means downgrading cups in Quantal.
See LP #1061063 and LP#1052897 for examples and the big list on Suse bugzilla : https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=735404 for more informations.
