Description
Describe the bug
I have used the driverless for a while. And the driverless is added manually by the command
lpadmin -p <foo> -v <ipp-address> -E -m driverless:<ipp-address>.
However, I have never been able to successfully print out the driverless added by the cups-browsed.
Today I upgraded to Ubuntu 25.04,the issue still exists. Of course the problem also exists on my other Linux distros.
I'm quite busy recently and don't have enough time to do a deeper investigation, so only create the issue first.
System Information:
- OS: [Ubuntu25.04]
- cups-browsed [2.1.1]

Research direction
Start by reproducing the failure with Ubuntu 25.04 and cups-browsed 2.1.1 using the driverless printer setup in the report. Trace the implicitclass backend and cups-browsed handling of destination hosts when status 7 is returned. Done means identifying why no free destination host is found and adding a regression test for the failing case.
