For a CUPS printer to be usable by another machine, you need:

1. the printer to be marked as 'Shared' (the Printer-> Shared checkbox)
2. the CUPS server to 'Publish shared printers' (Server-> Settings...->
Public shared printers connected to this system)
3. the firewall settings on the server to allow 'Network Printing
Server'
4. the firewall settings on the client to allow 'Network Printing
Client'
