New client doesn't show remote printers

I set up a new system (SuSE 9.2, 32bit), "standard92", with CUPS and
copied the CUPS configuration (everything in /etc/cups) from a
different system, "oregon". The new system, however, isn't able
to obtain any of the remote printers from "rex3", a CUPS server (there
is no output from the latter command):
oregon> lpstat -p -h rex3
printer Brother7820N now printing Brother7820N-0. enabled since Jan 01 00:00
printer K600 is idle. enabled since Jan 01 00:00
printer kyocera600 is idle. enabled since Jan 01 00:00
printer mfc7820n is idle. enabled since Jan 01 00:00
printer minolta is idle. enabled since Jan 01 00:00
printer tp0 is idle. enabled since Jan 01 00:00
standard92> lpstat -p -h rex3
Of course, I've checked the CUPS configuration on the server,
"rex3". But I couldn't find anything wrong with it either: All
machines in the network 192.168.0.* are allowed access. Also, I
couldn't find anything suspicious in the log files under
"/var/log/cups/error_log", neither on the new client nor on the server.
Now, I wonder: How do I debug the problem, i.e. how do I find out more?
Any suggestions?
