Default need help enabling printer sharing with cups and SUSE 10.0

OK I am new to SuSe and I am having problems trying to get cups to allow
network sharing for my printer. I have three computers networked together
and want to use the printer for all three. their addresses are;

192.168.1.1 (this is the one the printer is on)
192.168.1.2
192.168.1.3

The printer is a HP PSC 2410v all-in-one printer. works great on its host
machine, but when i try to connect to it from another computer it seems
that the computer the printer is attached to doesn't communicate or allow
the other computers to see the printer. when I do a netstat - l from this
computer I get the following;

rick@RicksComputer:~> netstat -nl | grep 631
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:631 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:631 0.0.0.0:*

Below is the location portion of the cupsd.conf file.

Thanks for the help in advance.

yes on modem0 but but I have etho0 set as internal and all ports open.

OK thats has something to do with it, when i shut down the firewall all
worked fine. but if I have the firewall up, it doesnt work even if eth0
has all ports open. any ideas?
