printers.conf(5) at

  https://www.cups.org/documentation.php/doc-2.0/man-printers.conf.html

has none of the content for directives seen in previous manuals. It also
says:

   Description

    The printers.conf file defines the local printers that are
    available. It is normally located in the /etc/cups directory and
    is maintained by the cupsd(8) program. This file is not intended
    to be edited or managed manually.

   Notes

    The name, location, and format of this file are an implementation
    detail that will change in future releases of CUPS. 

You could take the issue upstream (where it belongs) but a successful
outcome is doubtful.

Regards,

Brian.
