Ubuntu is keeping browsing the LAN and installing printers automatically.

How to stop that?

1 - I have tried : 

sudo systemctl stop cups-browsed
sudo systemctl disable cups-browsed

2 - I have tried editing

/etc/cups/cups-browsedconf

and replacing BrowseRemoteProtocols dnssd cups by 

BrowseRemoteProtocols none

But both solution doesn't work.

Thanks for your help.

update - list of printers in both screens, I don't understand why in the screen with only two printers, there isn't all the printers listed in the background screen. enter image description here

  • Have you deleted all printers from CUPS after stopping the service? They don't drop off automatically.
