Could you give a bit more detail?  What printers were you expecting to
be auto-detected... are they hosted on CUPS instances on the network, or
are they actual network printers?

Duh, that probably would help.

It's one physical printer connected to my desktop and shared by CUPS
from there. I've got 3 queues on it, two of which are shared (normal,
and photo for the photo tray). They are on a flat network
(192.168.0.x)

Thanks,
Richard

FYI, I have a CUPS server running on a RHEL 4.x machine in my office and those queues are showing up fine in Fedora 15.

Wild guess, but is your default gateway set up properly on your F15 machine?
