Thank you for your explanation. It is important to me to understand that
it is true CUPS/gimp-print work in different way bewteen using broadcast
and using "add printer by URI manually". a.k.a. raster/ripping is done
on print server if using broadcast and raster/ripping is done on client
if client add printer manually. Can you give a brief hint? Ture or
false?

Besides, is it possible to let printer server do the raster even if
client choose to add printer manually?
