Ordinarily, this is easy to do.  Set up your server, do nothing with the
clients, and the default firewall options lets local printing sort
itself out.

When that doesn't work, you may have to rethink how your firewall is set
up.  You may have to specify the server address in the
client's /etc/cups/client.conf file.  You may have to hand-edit the
server /etc/cups/cupsd.conf file to listen to the local network and
allow local connections.

Read those config files, and the corresponding manuals/documentation.
