1: Check that Cups is actually listening on the network. Run this command as 
root on the machine where the printer is:

netstat --inet --inet6 --listen --program --numeric | grep cupsd

Does it say "192.168.x.y:631" or "127.0.0.1:631"?

2: Do you have a packet filter ("firewall") on the machine where the printer 
is? Have you opened the IPP ports in the packet filter?
