Do the necessary settings in your

should be your solution.
yes I figured out that dhcp wont work in this case. but the problem is how to get the printer on the network. cups is a command line based tool and I want people to use the printer over the network with open office etc, just the way people do it on windows.
Cups has nothing to do with using the printer. Once your printer is shared, after a few minutes, it should show up on the client machines as a networked printer. Then the users simply use it as their default printer. Your cupsd.conf should be configured correctly.
