Title:
  Cannot print to (Airport Extreme) networked printer via Avahi

Status in “avahi” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “cups” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Since upgrading to (K)ubuntu 13.10, I could not print to my Airport
  Extreme networked printer any more, using the identical settings that
  worked fine in 13.04.

  I can re-add the printer, and it is automatically discovered
  correctly. However, when I attempted to print to this "new" printer or
  the "old" printer, the job never completed, with "The printer is not
  responding". Printing to other network printers worked fine (also via
  Avahi names).

  Alternatively, I can add the printer using the IP address, i.e. as
  "socket://<ip address of Airport Extreme>:9100", and this works fine.

  For the failed Avahi case, I enabled more logging, and will attach
  `/var/log/cups/error_log`.
