Configuring HP5200 was too simple . I had done only this much . I connected the printer to the server (feodra 12 ) , and switched on the server
The printer was automatically detected and configured to the system.
From the client side (Fedora 12) I did had problem in connecting to the printer. This was because of name resolution problem + cups
settings
I had to do few steps
# In the server (ie where the printer was connected ) I had to give the necessary sharing option for the CUPS (http://server.mydomain.com:631/
# In the Linux client PC , I had to edit the /etc/hosts file and made entry for the server
