"System|Administration|Printing" brings up the "Printer Configuration" gui app.  On the menu bar is "Server  Printer  Group  View  Help".   Click "Server" and that gives you a drop-down with "Settings ..." as the second choice.  "Settings" brings up a "Basic Server Settings" dialog box.  The second check box is "Publish shared printers . . ."
