Steve,
The telnet server is not typically available in FC3. ssh should work.
Post your /etc/cups/cupsd.conf file from your server.
This is the significant portion from mine:

There are two printers lp8150 and lp5500. I can see both from another
Fedora box on the same subnet. Printing a test page from the remote
machine was successful.
I would suggest disabling the firewall until you get this resolved,
'service iptables stop'.
