That does not sound right.
There is no difference between Oracle JDK and OpenJDK regarding CUPS.
In other words there is no "closed" printing code.
There is an internal server hosting some of the required cups header files
and perhaps you mean that internal builds can just point to those, but
that is just a convenience and not anything to do with Oracle JDK.
