You need to add some lines to the CUPS config file.
In /etc/cups/cupsd.conf

Change
Listen 127.0.0.1:631 to Port 631

and Add
Allow From 192.168.1.*
using your local network ip structure


After you change that restart the cups server
$sudo  /etc/init.d/cupsys restart

to confirm that your printer is listening and can be seen by your client 
  use nmap *ip address of the server* if you see port 631 then your good 
to connect.
