Maybe port 631 will work here, I have it set to Listen *.631

On the client mahines you want to comment out the listen localhost:631
line in cupsd.conf. Then you want to make a file in /etc/cups called
client.conf. Insert in it
ServerName *****
Add whatever the name or ip address of the server machine is.
Somewhere I read that you have to use the server name as defined in
/etc/host, you might have to add it to the file if you haven't done
this all ready. I did it that way and restrated cups and it worked.

The lpstat command will show if you are seeing the printer or not.
I just figured this out last night. Hope it works for you.
