How do I stop Cups from detecting and installing printers automatically?

When I go to print, I only want to see the printers I have added manually.

When I remove auto detected network printers in the Cups browser page, they just reinstall, which is extremely annoying. Users should approve printers before they just get installed like this.

I have read posts from a couple years ago, but only saw possible work arounds. I'm looking for a proper solution.

I am using Ubuntu 20.04.

Thanks.
