Here are my results with 3.24.24-4+deb11u2~mr6.1 and 3.24.24-4+deb11u2~mr9.1.
I am not sure how the .local printer appeared, and I retried mr6 to check if
its results are consistent.

I am unable to print anything through the network with mr6.1 and mr9.1, but
printing through USB still works fine.

I tried mr6 again and the results seem to be the same as before:
I can print through the network (and through USB) with mr6.
Unfortunately with mr6, it shows the same printer more than once and it
would take some trial and error to find out which works and which does
not.

As before, I did not delete any cups-related directories or configuration
files, but I removed printers through gnome-control-center because it was
faster to clear print jobs that way.
