(Get the code!)
cups-browsed does for sure not send anything to the given ports, and it also does not directly send anything to the multicast addresses. It communicates with avahi-daemon via D-Bus to get informed about network printers appearing or disappearing, updates its internal printer list accordingly and creates CUPS queues or removes them, communicating with CUPS via localhost:631 (using the IPP protocol) or domain socket. It also subscribes to CUPS notifications via D-Bus.
