It appears that Cups 1.6 no longer supports automatic discovery of remote printers.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/1052897

So that's one question answered.  Apparently not having remote printers show up \
automatically is the expected behaviour as it can no longer be done.

I'm getting the impression that printing with Centos 7 has broken, due to \
shortcomings in cups 1.6.

A raw print queue doesn't work for me when printing to the Xerox Phaser 3150 from the \
Centos 7 client to the Centos 6 print server.  All I get when printing a test page \
with the raw queue is this:

#PDF-BANNER
Template default-testpage.pdf
Show printer-name printer-info printer-location printer-make-and-model printer-d
river-name printer-driver-version paper-size imageable-area job-id options time-
at-creation time-at-processing

Changing the printer driver on the Centos 7 client to Xerox Phaser 3150 instead of \
raw gets me two pages of print-out when I click "print test page".  The first page \
says, "**** Warning: glyf overlaps cmap, truncating."  Then the test page prints as \
expected.
