I think Net::CUPS::Destination should be able to report the printer-state attribute. So I think Net::CUPS::Destination::NETCUPS_getDeviceAttribute should be able to return non-string attributes. In fact, I think it should also be able to return multi-valued attributes, but I ran out of time for that. The patch included adds a getState method.

I updated the patch to Net::CUPS 0.63, adding support for CUPS >= 1.6. I verified it to work with both CUPS 1.5.4 and 2.1.3. I'm running (the old version of) the patch in production for seven years now.

Applied your patch and published Net::CUPS 0.64 Thanks for updating the patch! I seem to have missed that your report already included a patch when I took over maintenance. I may not do much development myself, but I sure can commit patches and publish new versions :)
