Nope. I changed the client.conf file as you said and restarted cups but
in the printer configuration there was nothing. I specified "networked
cups" as the printer, but it asked me for the server, so I entered the
IP address. The last screen says:

About to create the following queue:

Type: IPP Print Queue
ipp://192.168.1.100:631/printers/queue1
Printer: Epson PM 760C

I don't think any of that is right, and when I tried to print from the
client computer with similar settings last time, it tied up my cups
server on the host computer.

I tried the same by logging into port 631 directly, but there was more
stuff I didn't understand (the pull-down menu with the different
parallel ports and usb ports).
