If you use system-config-printer, or its troubleshooter, you might find
what's up.

My guess is that firewalld is preventing CUPS Browse packets from being
received.

In F-18 firewalld is the default firewall solution using a zone model. The default zone for the system is the 'public' zone, which only allows to access ssh and dhcpv6 as a client.

If your machine is always at home you can safely change the default zone to 'home', where ipp-client (printing client) is enabled by default. You can do this with the command

  firewall-cmd --set-default-zone=home

or using the grahical configuration tool

  firewall-config

If your machine is a notebook, that you are using also in other environments, for example an internet cafe and you are using wirelesss at home also, then simply put your home wireless connection in the home zone using the network manager configuration tool or with the firewall-applet (left click on the connection you want to change and go to general tab in nm-connection-editor).

If your machine is using wired lan at home and wireless every where else, you can place the wired connection in the home zone and leave the default to public.

You can also create and modify zones according to your needs with the firewall-config tool.
