Hum, the native cups on macos doesn't need avahi to see bonjour printers.
On my NetBSD server, a mdns-cups sees bonjour printers as well (but this
is an older cups actually).

With recent cups, maybe you need to start the cups-bwowsed daemon
(in addition to cupsd) to see bonjour printers.
Maybe cups-bwowsed is in a separate package now
