If the server supports a socket mode this would be the easiest way of
connection. KUPS has a possibility to scan for socket printers.
KUPS also scans for SMB printers, but you must have the SMB packages
installed and restart the CUPS daemon and KUPS after installing the SMB
packages.
In the LPD mode of the server you have to configure manually. The queue
name on the server is mostly "lp". User "Remote LPD printer" or similar
in the CUPS configuration programs (KUPS, printerdrake, CUPS web
interface).
