I honestly don't know. Printing to a remote printer coupled by usb to another Mandriva box is simplicity itself, but in the case of a ethernet print-server, which is (I think?) what you are talking about is probably completely different. In the first case the printer driver lives on the box that the printer is attached to. I don't know how you manage the driver for an ethernet print-server. If you are a club member you could try the knowledgebase pages on the club website - there's a lot of old but still relevant info there about cups.
