I need help getting my ubuntu box to print to a remote CUPS queue on a Suse 
9.1 machine.

When I set up the printer on the ubuntu box it want me to enter either a IPP 
or HTTP address.

This is from the printers.conf file on the Suse box where the USB printer 
resides.

# Printer configuration file for CUPS v1.1.20

Info hp deskjet 5100
Location USB printer on //5150?serial=MY3793Q0S67A
DeviceURI usb://5150?serial=MY3793Q0S67A
State Idle

JobSheets none none

Can someone kindly give me the syntax to make this happen?
