To comment further, 

      Networked CUPS printing does not work with this kernel, either.  I know 
this because I installed another distribution of Linux (Mandrake 10.0 ) on 
another computer on which I installed Fedora Core 3rc3 and to which the 
printer was attached and voilá, networked printing works like a charm.  When 
I go through Start Menu- Preferences- Print Manager  (I have the KDE desktop 
environment) , I can even see the printer over the network without having to 
establish any settings to print to that computer.  For some reason, there 
seems to be a problem with this computer (I have Fedora Core 3/rc3 and it 
installed without a hitch) even seeing other printers over the local network 
with Fedora Core 3rc3 on that machine.  The folks at Fedora need to look into 
this.
