[Bug 38149] Re: setting a default printer does not work

[jh]

Same sorts of problems here:

* Never remembers default printer (from gnome-print manager)
* Doesn't show paper sizes or dpi available for remote printers in gnome-print manager.
* Always shows as printer at host, even if cups.d/browse.conf contains
  BrowseShortNames Yes
* Seems confused between printers and classses

In summary: This is highly regressed from breezy or current gentoo.
