Printer don't show up on remote machines

Hail!
I have a USB printer, connected to the desktop machine. It works well. It is shared by CUPS. On the laptops of family members the printer don't show up. When I start system-config-printer it connects to the server and sees the printer, even test page is being printed, but no other application sees it. When I install the printer, that appears on the server, and the remote machines don't see still. One remote machine runs ArchLinux with installed CUPS, one is on Arch without cups and one is Ubuntu. I can't understand it yet, so any help would be nice.
TNX
