(Get the code!)
daqron, you are probably using a released version of Ubuntu, Lucid or Maverick. The version 1.4.5-1ubuntu4 is in the repositories of Natty, the Ubuntu version which will get released in April this year. To test the new CUPS version, download a daily live CD of Natty (boot it, but do not install it as it is not yet ready for production use) and see whether you get the desired behavior in the Natty live session. Do not forget to activate the sharing of your local printers and/or accepting remote shared printers in System -> Administration -> Printing and there under Server -> Settings.
Note also that the CUPS 1.4.5 from cups.org does not have Avahi-based DNS-SD support. We have added the support with a patch.
Note also that the CUPS 1.4.5 which you have compiled from source is installed into subdirectories of /usr/local/ by default and so does not overwrite the CUPS of Ubuntu. You must explicitly uninstall the Ubuntu-provided CUPS to make sure that the source-compiled one gets used.
