I have remote printing set up for my server.
My server prints locally, so I used APSfilter to configure my printer.
For the remote machines I have a /etc/printcap file that looks 
like this:
lp|lpj|deskjet:\
	:sd=/var/spool/lpd/dj:\
	:rm=192.168.0.1:\
	:rp=lp:\
	:sh:

You will also have to make an entry into /etc/hosts.lpd.
