You are abridging the output. I would expect to see something like the following for a printer....

Code:
+   eth0 IPv4 HP LaserJet Pro M428f-M429f [BE6E3C]          Web Site             local
=   eth0 IPv4 HP LaserJet Pro M428f-M429f [BE6E3C]          Web Site             local
   hostname = [Comms-printer.local]
   address = [192.168.30.150]
   port = [80]
   txt = []
where comms-printer.local is the Avahi hostname, and pinging by it's name....
Code:

They do respond to pinging by their host name.

Ok, you finally demonstrated that you can at least ping the printer by its Avahi hostname (DCP9055.local)

Way back at post #9, you reported output showing "Printer State: Processing - Unable to locate printer". This can be due Avahihostname resolution or firewall configuration...
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php...locate_printer
However, I assume that you no longer have this error.

Report back with output from
Code:
lpstat -t
Code:
egrep -i "name|model|filter" /etc/cups/ppd/*

Use sudo...

BTW, when posting commands and output you should enclose with in [code] tags (refer to the '#' button in the advanced editor).

The lpstat output looks as expected. Can you print a test page successfully?
