You still have to actually ADD a new printer.  I am assuming Ubuntu here
but I would bet it is nearly the same for every Linux Desktop.  When you
do, select network printer and the printing setup will probably find it.
If not you might have to doing it manually from the IP.  I've never had to
do it that way though.
