personally, telling system-config-securitylevel to open 631:udp made it possible for me to use printer service discovery...
Why isn't this listed in the "list" of ports in s-c-s?

I have just done a fresh install of FC3, Release Candidate 3. Printing to a networked LPD server still will not work. This is a bug (#133064) that is assigned to the kernel. Telnet to the print server fails, but ping succeeds. FC2 telnets fine to the print server.

For the Record,
I have also installed Fedora Core 3 and I am also having problems with
network printing, the only difference that I am having is with connecting to a remote CUPS server on my local network. This seems to be a problem also when I had Fedora Core 2 installed as well. Ironically, when I had a different distribution of Linux on my server, the other computers could "see" the print server without having to set up printing through the KDE print manager. This bug needs to be worked out before the official release.

It might be useful for you to add your comments to bugzilla #133064. That bug report has been reassigned to the kernel, and even though it is for remote LPD servers, the problem with remote CUPS servers may be from the same root cause.
