Although used by other vendors, a socket://... URI is really an HP
thing, used by JetDirect appliances, so not surprising. Anyway, this
very useful info of yours would prompt me to discard advising the use
of snmp to match IP address with printer model. We are back to
avahi-browse.

I appreciate you print to that printer infrequently but would suggest a
manually set up queue may suit you.

Execute

  driverless

to get its URI. (I am sure you can sort out which one it is).

Then

  lpadmin -p SENSIBLE_PRINTER_NAME -L MYOFFICE -v URI -E -m everywhere
