I discovered IPP by accident/chance because getting the HP driver or PDD file was not easy. And it has been working perfectly for years !
It was the only choice on the CUPS interface for which driver was optional/not needed.
I did not use avahi-discoverh though, I typed the printer IP.
The fact that I choose a semi-pro printer, to get laser and reliability, probably helped.
It also allows me to scan directly to a network drive so I never had to install a scanner driver.
