FC3 did have cups printing... it's available at least since redhat 9! I still have one old machine running RH9 sharing some printers which are seen by all computers (FC3, FC5, FC6 and MacOS X). I'm replacing this machine with a new one running FC6. All computers are in the same network and as cups' browsing is enabled by default nothing should be necessary.
