Avoiding cups on clients

[Bernardo Innocenti <bernie develer com>]

Hello,

in our office setup, the only available printer is
shared by a server running cups.

Is seems that clients still need to run cupsd just
to print through this printer.  cupsd takes a few
seconds to start and is generally a resource hog.

Is it possible to access the remote printer without
using a local cupsd?  If not, how could I turn off
unneeded cups components such as the web server at
port 632 and local printer discovery?
