Can one use names rather than IP addresses for Cups printers?

I see that in my /etc/cups/printers.conf file my printers are
specified by IP address and not name.

Is this a requirement in CUPS?

If my printer happened to change its IP address but keeps its name it
would be handy if this didn't break CUPS.
