I had similar troubles with cups on RH9, and I've decided that the Redhat print-conf-gui thing is broken; although it may work for a local printer, but it does *not* create a viable cups server. My advice would be to avoid that entirely, and setup your cups server by following the cups docs (ie, go through each config option and set it manually), and make sure you have the appropriate access controls, etc. If you do that, it should work. Then each client setup is as simple as putting the cups-server hostname in /etc/cups/client.conf and you're done. Again, avoid the RH print gui thing on both cups server and clients. That said, you will need to use the cups CLI or web interface to manage print jobs, etc. This would be my approach until the RH printer widget works properly.
