Ah, I see.  Well, the Browsing On and BrowseAllow lines are controlled
by the 'Automatically find remote shared queues' check-box in the
Sharing dialog.  For network configurations in which broadcast browse
packets are no good, you can try using the BrowsePoll/BrowseInterval
directives -- see /usr/share/doc/cups-*/sam.*.
