Dapper Remote IPP Printing Browse Problem

Fresh install of Ubuntu Dapper on an IBM R52 1859-BAU laptop that  
previously ran various flavors of SuSE w/ KDE and did LAN printing OK.

Office LAN has a SuSE 10.0 print server correctly configured to allow  
browsing, but Dapper doesn't see it in the Add Printer dialog.

So, I manually add the URI as:
http://192.168.51.2:631/printers/r200

Now I can print a test page OK.

How do enable printer browsing on Ubuntu?  I have other printers on  
different LANs I will need to add, and I haven't memorized all of the  
IP addresses and queue names.  :-)

FWIW, /etc/cups/cups.d/browse.conf already contains "Browsing on" and  
I don't see anything in cupsd.conf that would conflict with browsing.

Thanks,
Mark
