How do I print to a remote CUPS printer
from machines on which I am not root?
On the remote machine, FC5, I am root.
On the clients, FreeBSD and FC3, I am not root,
but can open TCP ports.
Is there a nonroot IPP client that can
be used to print on a remote printer?

On the CUPS server you must make the print queues shared. The clients'
CUPS will automatically see the shared queues on the network.

On the server, go to System->Administration->Printing, click on the
queue you want to share, then Edit, etc.

Oh, and you must have port 631 tcp and udp open on the CUPS server.


That is absolutely the wrong way to share printers using CUPS. All printers on the same lan as the server can
print to the server's printers by default. No configuration is required.
