I ran into something similar: The protocol changed between Mac OS 10.5 and 10.6, and some reconfiguration is needed to talk both protocols. The clearest explanantion I found is at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2275?viewlocale=en_US We worked around it following those instructions, typing cupsctl BrowseProtocols='"cups dnssd"' into a Terminal window. That told the Mac to also look for printers using the protocol that our cups install was using. Might be related.
