Using your browser log into CUPS http://localhost:631
Select Administration
You will need to specify User as Root & roots password to login

Enter the name you want to give to your printer e.g 'lp'
On the next screen Select Device "LPD/LPR Host or Printer" from the drop down 
list.

On the next screen enter lpd://192.168.1.103/lp

On the next screen select you printer manufacturer

On the next screen select your printer model & driver 
(for an explanation of the drivers see 
http://www.linuxprinting.org/printer_list.cgi or 
http://www.linuxprinting.org/driver_list.cgi )

The printer should not be configured. To do some fine tuning goto the 
"Printers" menu and select the "Configure Printer" tab 

If you want to change the driver select the "Modify Printer" tab.
