Actually it turned out to be enough. Since the printer was seen in the
CUPS manager on the client machine it seems apps on that machine can
print across the network. I didn't have to make any more changes to
get it to work.
The confusion I had was that when I access the CUPS page in Firefox on
the client machine I thought I was managing something on that machine.
It seems it's really just showing what's on the network (i this case)
and a proxy for what is on the server.
I'll look through the comments in the emails that follow this one to
see if I can make any improvements but at least it's working.
Thanks!
