Wey-hey! It WORKS! :-D

Thanks Richard, thank you all.  The mistake was with me missing out
the /printers/ part of the address.  Hmm, perhaps the Example given on the
gui needs improving?

Last question and then I'll be good to print until I run out of money to pay
for the *extremely expensive* HP ink ;-)

What rule should I add to the firewall on the server to allow it to accept
cups requests from the client.  I don't want to open a great big hole for
all traffic, just the cups requests only.  With the firewall working the
client logs show:
================================
 Network host '192.168.0.3' is busy; will retry in 30 seconds...
================================

Also, if I were to tweak the cupsd.conf file with security in mind what
would be your recommendations for a good set up?
