xerox color machines with fiery controllers aren't that well working with ipp, the last time I worked with them (3 years ago) it crashed pretty often, which meant a full reboot was needed which takes like 5+ minutes on these which was not possible. lpd is still super simple and works super well on these machines, even when using non standard ports

OK I've just tested that against my home HP MFP and 9100/tcp shows in the results. If lpd does it for you on Xerox printers, then fine: use that. I was discussing HPLIP ie getting rid of a Hewlett Packard thing!
