FC3 did have cups printing... it's available at least since redhat 9!
I still have one old machine running RH9 sharing some printers which are
seen by all computers (FC3, FC5, FC6 and MacOS X).
I'm replacing this machine with a new one running FC6.
All computers are in the same network and as cups' browsing is enabled by
default nothing should be necessary.

printing.
If I am wrong on that then the question is, were the printers set up
using system-config-printer and you clicked on sharing. That will not
work with cups printer sharing in my experience.
How did you set up the FC5 machine to use the shared printers. If all
the machines are on the same LAN then you should have done nothing. In
particular you should not have filled in the reference to the server in
the client.conf file. If you tried to configure the printers using
system-config-printer, unconfigure them locally.
If the printers are on different LANs then you must identify the server
in client.conf.
