Remote administration is disabled by default.  Use the following  
command in a Terminal window to enable it:

     cupsctl --remote-admin

Have you enabled printer sharing on the server? If not, CUPS will not  
allow you to print remotely.

Use Server Admin on the Mac server to enable printer sharing.
