You can try SAMBA print sharing, but I think CUPS handles remote printing. I had it set once, with CUPS in both machines, and I somehow set my client machine to point to the other CUPS server for a list of printers to use.
I am using a print server device as another suggested, and it works fine. They are pretty cheap too, think I paid $30.
