Printer sharing

[Joel Goguen]

0.  Open a web browser.
1.  Go to http://localhost:631/
2.  Click 'Administration'
3.  On the right, check the box that says to share all published printers
4.  On the other Ubuntu box, add the new IPP printer with this URI:
ipp://<ip_of_box>/printers/<name_of_printer>

You can get <name_of_printer> by clicking the printer name under the
Printers tab, and the last part in the address bar is
<name_of_printer>.  <ip_of_box> is the box where you did all this
stuff.
