You could do it via "http://remote-ip-address:631/" once you have 
edited the "Allow From" lines (or inserted additional ones) in the
various <Location ...>.....</Location> sections of cupsd.conf.

On the ommandline you could also do stuff like

  lpstat -h remote-ip-address -p
  lpstat -h remote-ip-address -v
  lpstat -h remote-ip-address -o
  lpstat -h remote-ip-address -W completed -o printername
  lprm -h remote-ip-address <job-id>
