Tim, You have to open the port to outside computers, for me that means editing a file at /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and adding a line "here and there" that says something like "Allow From 192.168.4.*". Then restart cups and watch /var/log/cups/error_log and /var/log/cups/access_log. Make sure you can load http://tesla:631/ with your browser from boyle.
