We have been using the share
printer function for years.
Go to localhost:631 and go to manage printers in admin.
It's buried somewhere, in there, an option to share the printer.

You can print on any printer, but for zeroconf
aka "magicly see the
other printers on the net" you need "avahi" - which I ended up
removing fom any devices, 'cause it screws up routing tables when you
happen to be in the same as a silvery rotton tomato laptop.

In all the years I've used Linux, the only time I could access a remote
printer from another PC, was when the printer was wireless.
Seeing CUPS accessing a printer USB-connected to the other PC, that was
definitely a first for me. :)
