The following command should suffice:
lpadmin -p printer_name -E -v socket://ip_address -c yourPrinterClass

where printer_name is the name of the printer, ip_address the address of the 
printer and yourPrinterClass a class (you don't need to create it since it is 
created as the first printer is added) to manage your printers.

Hope this helps,
Luca
