CUPS automatically installs EVERY printer on the network

[cement_head]

On Ubuntu 16.04 (and 15.10) CUPS automagically installs EVERY printer on the network. This is idiotic and must stop. I NEVER want to automatically install every printer every time I connect to a network.

Please make this stop.

Attached <cups-browsed.conf> file as requested.

Issue seems to be fixed. Followed all suggestions here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/345083/how-do-i-disable-automatic-remote-printer-installation

[cement_head (andorjkiss)]

Nope. Took a bout five minutes to install them ALL again.

Issue is ONLY with Firefox after changes made in post #4
