Tim, please read fully and respond to the issues raised. You are falling into the imprecision of language trap, too.

I don't know why I keep responding to you. I said that cups browsing does not work if you don't set UTC. Over and over that is what I said.
I respond because that is wrong. It does work. CUPS browsing does work for people with UTC set and for people without UTC set. It works for me, it works for them.
You have a fault, it's not CUPS, and it's been pointed out where the problem actually is.
You are misdiagnosing cause and effect.
Now you are being imprecise. Do you mean UTC time zone setting or UTC hardware clock setting with and without agreement between actual hardware clock setting and the UTC/LOCAL indication in /etc/adjtime (the check box on the time zone setting tool)?
This is known working: HARDWARE CHECKBOX TIMEZONE UTC UTC ANY LOCAL LOCAL ANY
These are known to break at least NTP: HARDWARE CHECKBOX TIMEZONE UTC LOCAL ANY LOCAL UTC ANY
Do all four work for cups? (I'd rather suspect it would unless there is an SSL connection being set or there is a sanity check in CUPS that does not seem to be published.)
Both the hardware and system clock were set correctly which was why it took so long to find the problem.
According to what you have said, over numerous messages, you have *not* set your time correctly. You've misunderstood how the clocks should be configured. That is, the time the clock is set for, *and* *all* the parameters that describe to the system how the clock is set.
You still ignore the correct two places that must agree for "everything" to work, the setting for the motherboard clock must be either UTC or local time and that information must be telegraphed to the OS with the value in the third line of "/etc/adjtime" which is apparently set by the appropriate checkbox on the time zone setting panel.
The simple proof is, if you have set the clock configuration correct, CUPS browsing will work.
He has said he made it correct. Apparently he meant making the motherboard clock and the checkbox agree. He was NOT talking about timezone setting.
Until you fix the actual problem, explained numerous times, you going to experience other problems. One of them is going to be hitting your head against other people who keep pointing out what you're doing wrong. It won't stop being wrong just because you don't like it.
And corrections aren't just made for your benefit, whether or not you accept them, they're also made for people researching the same problems, so they get the correct answers.
Go back and read the messages, mine and jdow's, read the documentation for setting the clock, and do it correctly. Do not assume that because your clock appears to show the correct time, according to you looking at it and comparing it with some non-computer clock.
NB: You can't just change the UTC setting on and off to test things (such as CUPS browsing). You have to set the time of the clock in accordance with the UTC setting, too.
At worst Aaron is guilty ONLY of imprecision in telling us what he had to do. We cleared this up in private emails.
