On the CUPS server you must make the print queues shared. The clients'
CUPS will automatically see the shared queues on the network. 

On the server, go to System->Administration->Printing, click on the 
queue you want to share, then Edit, etc. 

Oh, and you must have port 631 tcp and udp open on the CUPS server.
