Setup your CUPS server to support browsing. It will allow you laptop to
discover the printer when on your local network. You may have to set your
laptop to respect the broadcasted printers as well. It pretty neat. I use
this feature of CUPS to broadcast printers for Mac OS X users also since CUPS
is used under the covers on Mac OS X. I don't believe the setup is that
difficult. The main thing you want to make sure is that the browsing doesn't
leave your network.
