I've been doing some printer configurations at work and have come

computer on the local network to access the cups system from any
system with a web browser?
I believe you have to specifically configure CUPS to allow
connections from IPs other than localhost. The CUPS website has
pretty long docs.
I do believe that the default configuration of CUPS is to allow
anyone to connect to port 631, but Apple ships CUPS so that it will
only respond to browsers on the localhost. I am 95% sure that I
needed to re-write the <Location> directives to give access to
browsers on the network.
Have fun....
